Best broker for long-term investors
Buy-and-hold wealth is built on ₹0 delivery brokerage, zero-fee direct mutual funds, and a platform you'll still like in ten years.
For buy-and-hold investors the maths is simple: ₹0 delivery brokerage brokers win by default, and the tie-breakers are AMC, mutual-fund support (direct plans), and platform trust over years.
Pair your broker with a SIP habit — the SIP calculator shows what a monthly habit compounds to — and keep F&O far away from the retirement corpus.

FAQs
Is ₹0 delivery brokerage really free?
Brokerage-free, not charge-free: STT (0.1% each side), exchange, GST, stamp and DP charges on selling still apply. See the full cost breakdown in the brokerage calculator.
Should I keep stocks and mutual funds in one app?
One app is simpler and this ranking rewards it; specialists may still prefer a dedicated MF platform for analytics. Both approaches work.
