Wisdom Capital is an online broker with very little investment in technology. This makes it difficult for Wisdom Capital to compete with other discount stock brokers including Zerodha, 5Paisa, Upstox, and ProStocks, etc. Except for investment advisory and trading courses, Wisdom doesn't have any unique selling point.

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.
