SMC Global Vs Aditya Birla Money - NRI Account Advantages and Disadvantages

  SMC Global Aditya Birla Money
Pros
  • NRIs doesn't require separate Custodial Account to trade in Equity Derivatives as SMC is a registered clearing member who can get CP code for and clear the trades. This offers a huge saving for NRIs.

  • Offers research advice and stock recommendations
Cons
  • Offers NRI trading services only to NRIs who have bank accounts with Yes, Axis, HDFC, Indusind, or Federal Bank account holders.
  • It offers 2-in-1 account means NRIs have to open an NRI bank account and PIS with other banks. It also means that they have to transfer funds in their PIS account before trading.
  • Good Till Date/Time (GTD) and Good Till Cancelled (GTC) orders are not available.
  • Doesn't offer a 3-in-1 account and separate account opening increases the paperwork.
  • Doesn't offer an IPO investment option.
  • Robo advisory facility is not available.
Conclusion

SMC comes across as a good choice for NRI investors who are looking for a company that offers a wide range of financial products under one roof and investment recommendations. The broker offers a good online trading platform. It also provides wealth management services to NRIs. It has a corporate office in Dubai which makes it easy for NRIs residing in the city to avail various services through branch visits. The brokerage charges of SMC Global are high in comparison to discount stock brokers.

Aditya Birla Capital is a well-known name when it comes to financial services. However, when it comes to trading & investment services for NRIs it doesn't measure up to its reputation. The company doesn't have a major USP for NRIs. It doesn't offer 3-in-1 accounts. The choices in trading platforms are limited. There are many better options available in the market.
