- Clean, modern mobile experience
- Free account opening
Watch out for
- Flat per-order pricing adds up for small trades

- Research content is basic
4.6/ 5
Zerodha remains the benchmark discount broker: unbeatable for delivery investors, transparent flat pricing for traders. Beginners wanting hand-holding may prefer a full-service app.
What we like

- Trader-first feature velocity
- Clean modern interface
Watch out for
