Prostocks offer online trading service at the cheapest brokerage rate to the NRIs. It has partnerships with 5 popular banks in India to offer NRI trading. The free account opening and AMC free demat & trading account is an added advantage for the NRI customers. Prostocks doesn't provide research and advisory service.
