Hi, I researched on these and wanted to know what my fellow dimers think of these two, pros and cons, from their experiences.

I want to invest more in MF Direct plans, and maybe some stocks, F&O, etc. nothing too high, only a beginner. Safety is also a big concern, as I plan to do long term investment, and/or SIP in MFs.

Is there some other equally good option too?

Your opinions are valuable to me, thanks.

Use Zerodha for simplicity (cons: has fees 300 AMC + otp on each sell order/day)

use dhan for lowest charges (cons: very new + some feature might not be present + not so user friendly)

use Groww for user friendly (cons: little charges on stocks)

I am using all 3, and personally i like Groww more

Groww is scummy, I'd prefer Zerodha anyday. But for MF, I'd suggest MFCentral or Kuvera.

Groww will treat you like another money making data line in a database, Zerodha treats you like a customer.

Zerodha has fees. Groww opens demat account even if you only want mf investment. Both are good

Groww is more user friendly.

But for intraday traders, zerodha kite is the way to go. Looks cool, multiple options for Buy/sell. can keep track of stocks sold and calculate MTM as well.

I use zerodha, INDmoney, have my family account in groww and Motilal Oswal.

If you are beginner and don't do lots of trade, then go with free account like Groww or INDmoney. If you trade more on intraday, F&O then you need glitch free ones but still Zerodha would be ok. Whenever there is a market crash Zerodha have issue, in recent small cap meltdown my app was not logging in, during last volatility period I had invested huge in FO,. unfortunately because of broker(zerodha) I lost some money due to glitches, login issues.

Let me know if you need referal for any of them. INDmoney is giving some referral bonus I guess and have option to buy US stocks, also have option to track all assets, which I feel good (tracking in one place) and bad 😞 (privacy is data leaked), but it's optional to link the data.

Zerodha or nothing. The opening fees and AMC are negligible and more than worth it in the long run.

Thank you all for your responses and feedback.

Can we easily set up sip for MF in both? and buy and sell these MF easily as well?

What is the difference on charges between zerodha and groww for trade? I understand that MF direct will still be free.

I understand for account opening 200 and 300/year for AMC which are minimal for trading account- in zerodha, and free in groww.

    1) Just go to AMC's site and login there. You don't need Zerodha, Dhan to be able to do so.
    2) SIP using AMC's site is straight forward.

    If investing in stock and MF, not trading go with Groww, and if the safe side and fully trading or stock go with Zerodha

    In future groww is also added charges, so don't see charges, in the word no any thing is free, like expamle Paytm and Credit card now start charges

    Zerodha is the most profitable entity and has its own rupees, whenever Groww is running investor rupees like paytm no owner

    Zerodha doesn't have STP feature, It is a deal breaker for me, I currently have my mf  investments in zerodha coin so I don't want to go through the hassle of shifting brokers. If I was to start fresh, I would've choose groww solely for the STP feature. Zerodha however promised me stp in a few weeks so let's see.

    STP = Systematic Transfer Plan

    It means one can keep excess money in liquid fund and do sip to any other fund of same fund house directly from the liquid fund, so no need to do it manually and involve bank statement records.

    Stocks - Zerodha
    MF - Groww

    I've been using hdfc and zerodha. Hdfc has lots of charges, but money gets debited instantly for any purchase. In zerodha, I have to add funds to the zerodha account first before purchasing stocks.

    I thought 300 was the only charge apart from small brokerage fee for each transaction in zerodha. When did they start charging AMC? By the way, I think mf transactions are free in zerodha.
