Zerodha offers an excellent customer support. It always delivers a unique, standard, and memorable experience to the customers. The queries of customers are mostly answered by the CEO of the company itself or by the experts in the related field. Opening an account with them is an easy and stress-free process. One of my personal experience with Zerodha is when I completed the online application within an hour a representative called me to welcome and answered all the queries I had. He also suggested me to refer z-connect, an interactive blog written by experts which is very detailed and simple to understand. It is a cool place for beginners to learn.

Being a discount share broker, our expectation from Zerodha was to charge minimum share brokerage for trading, that comes true by paying Rs.20 or 0.01% per executed order whichever is minimum for an option, F&O, currency trading, and commodity. They also made trading in equity delivery completely free. As Zerodha is not a 3 in 1 brokerage, some initial work is to be done to set up the bank account.
