  • High brokerage charges when compared with discount brokers like Zerodha, Prostocks, etc.

  • Doesn't offer Bracket Order facility.
  • Doesn't offer AMO (After Market Order) and GTC (Good' Till Cancelled) orders for investors.

Conclusion

Geojit is a highly recommended broker for NRIs residing in Middle East countries. It has 480+ offices and a dedicated Call Centre to offer quality services to NRIs. The company also offers strong research services to help NRIs make informed trading decisions. Other investment options including Mutual Funds, PMS and IPO make them preferred broker for many NRIs in the Gulf.

Trustline Securities is a good choice for both casual and frequent traders. The full-service broker offers depository services and research tips for NRIs. It also allows US and Canada based NRIs after filling FATCA and FEMA declaration form. The brokerage charges are quite low as compared to other full-service brokers in India. The broker also offers good web and mobile trading platforms in addition to a dedicated mobile app for mutual fund investments. Call n Trade facility and IPO application services are other features that make Trustline a good choice as an NRI stockbroker. The only major disadvantage with the broker is that it only allows Axis Bank accounts to be linked with its trading account. So, if you have Axis NRI bank accounts then its an excellent choice else you have to transfer your bank accounts to trade with Trustline.
