    hello

    yes, I've been using Kite app since it was made available

    I like Upstox more than Kite for the mobile app

    on a PC, Zerodha is better and also better overall with value added services and back-office reports

    But upstox is from RKSV and kite is from zerodha. So you use services from RKSV and Zerodha. So which is more better? more profitable?

    yes, i use both and they're more or less the same in terms of offerings for fees & charges

    Upstox is the better app if you're using mobile like me

    profitable? both have max & flat Rs 20 brokerage - no difference there

    I am going for upstox. Not for trading but once in while stock investing. It is quite smooth.

    15 Rs. per trade. For opening charges, I got at Zero Account opening charges as it was waived.

    Does upstox provide reports in excel format? Does Upstox have option for "buy today sell tomorrow" or "sell today buy tomorrow" type of trading?

    I am also thinking of using Upstox. So I made some basic inquiries. I browsed their website. I found that to transfer funds they charge Rs. 7/= per transaction. This can eat into your profit. BB, how do you transfer funds in UPSTOX?

    I've been using Zerodha for almost a year and have almost no problems. Sometimes in early day trading their servers go down because of load. I don't do intraday trading, only long term holding. So I can't comment on that.

    hello

    there are different interpretations to BTST and STBT (when there's no actual delivery), you'd better talk to the Risk Management guys at RKSV and not the sales team to get your doubt cleared

    having said that, i've done what i consider as normal BTST or STBT and had absolutely no problems

    hi

    yes, i don't like the costs associated with transferring funds using the payment gateway and the cost is what the PG actually charges these brokers for the service

    i've an account with HDFC Bank and RKSV (Upstox) and Zerodha both have accounts with HDFC Bank, so it's just a third party funds transfer within the bank and a call to the customer service if i want to trade urgently

    if you've an account with HDFC Bank, it'd be good
    else, there's no escaping this cost of using the PG or just use NEFT (don't know if RKSV accepts via IMPS, you'd like to check) and wait for hours or even a day when they aren't doing what needs to be done

    [btw, we also have to pay for NEFT/RTGS/IMPS unless there's an account offering which has it covered in the pricing, recently got one with Yes Bank and have accounts with IDFC Bank where i've transactions at no cost]

    same, Yembee and anytime there's been a problem, it's mostly an underlying problem with NEST

    So, if you have an account with HDFC Bank, the add fund charges/ PG charges are not payable?
