Zerodha charges Rs 200 per trade (PIS Account) and Rs 100 per trade (Non-PIS account) whereas full-service stock brokers charge on an average 0.75% of the order value.

  2. India's largest stock broker in terms of active customers.
  3. Offers access to best-in-industry trading software and tools.

  • NRIs get access to many advanced trading platforms. Some are free while others have a subscription fee.
Cons

  2. Doesn't offer Mutual Funds to NRI customers.
  3. Doesn't provide research reports or analysis.
  • Finvasia charges technology costs to provide access to some of the trading platforms.

Conclusion

Zerodha comes across as a decent choice for NRIs looking to invest in stock markets in India and want to save on brokerage. The company offers best-in-the-industry trading platforms and tools. However, NRIs have to open bank accounts with HDFC Bank, IndusInd Bank, IDFC FIRST Bank and Axis Bank to open a Zerodha NRI account. It also doesn't offer mutual fund investment services to NRIs. It charges a low flat-fee brokerage which makes it an attractive choice for NRIs.

Finvasia is an excellent choice for frequent NRI traders as it doesn't change any brokerage fee. The online trading platform it offers is the industry standard. Advance trading tools are also available. It also offers Algo trading platform to NRIs. Finvaisa also provides demat account and clearing services at a very low price. Finvasia has offices in the UK and Canada.
