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, Axis Bank, and Yes 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.

Ventura is a full-service broker that offers personalized services, research, and recommendations. It also provides online trading platform to NRIs. The brokerage charges are on the higher side. Ventura also doesn't offer GTC, AMO and BTST orders which make it difficult for NRIs to place orders in off-market hours.
