They have best brokerage plans where you can save on brokerage as well as on 18% GST that gets levied on the brokerage.

They have Neo trading app which is quite smooth and the best part is Margin Trading Facility available at 10.22% p.a.

Go for it.

Since the time I opened the D Mat a/c with Kotak Securities. I have nothing but REGRET. No one takes the responsibility to help customer.

The A/c are randomly transferred from one dept to another. The customer service is not reachable.I tried over 20 times from 11am to 2.30 pm still all rep are busy .
80k worth of assets was almost lost.
I am writing this regret page because of their treatment. I sold all my equities no matter it generated profit/loss.I had been trading since one year but compelled to close the a/c. It was the headache I purchased with my money.Most of the time customer service rep does not know what information they are providing.
I sold all my equities, and but was almost impossible to withdraw the funds. I see how apexchargeback ,com have been helping people with withdrawal issues and the accounts that was falsely drained, I reach and they were able to reclaim 80% of my assets . I leave Kotak for good.

Don't open account in KS. I had used for 3 years waiting for them to improve, but they are getting worst, so closing now.
1) Among increasing popularity of SME IPO they don't display them & thus not allow SME IPO application.
2) Even with mainboard IPOs, they close at 12MD last day. So if you are applying after look at last hour subscription in IPOs, KS does not allow application after 12 MD.
3) They require minimum Rs 1000 balance in trading account, though you got a 3in1 account. Every week they & nse send you either positive & negative fund balances by SMS, & you have to login every week to find cause & settle them or you need to pay HEAVY interest & auto settlle at 3 months if you had excess balance. With HDFC or AXIS SECURITIES, I don't have to balancing every week or pay hefty interest. They auto deduct from savings account as & when required, 1-2 in year.
4) They require to transfer fund from bank to trading account, before ordering any equity cash purchase, (atleast 25% of it & rest within 2 days, or they send SMS to oledge your shares). This is not required with atleast HDFC or AXIS SECURITIES. They directly transfer amount from savings account when order is executed, or give error of insufficient fund at beginning.
5) When you get offline transfer of gifted shares to your demat account, it does not allow to adjust purchase prices of securities, instead consider day & price of transfer day to calculate short or long term capital gains. Legally in case of offline transferred gifted shares, purchase price & date is considered of donee.
6) You are charged separately to receive tips by sms or by phone.
7) still many others, that I won't suffer with other 3in1 bank brokers.

ICICI Direct 3 in 1 account is also same, they will deduct the unknown charges from the saving account. If you are availing MTF (magin trading funding) facility then you will become their prey. They deduct many charges they haven't informed you ever. The customer care officers are the worst in the world they are purely illiterate people and they always fail to confidently tell you the explanation or the solution of any query.
One of the most expensive and fraud brokerage houses in India.
Please don't open demat and trading account in ICICI direct.

Very bad experience on customer service. It is not worth wasting time with Kotak & end up with the worst bureaucratic process. Take your money / savings else where. In today’s service oriented world, wonder what do Kotak employees spend time on !

App interface is bad compared to competitors. This broker can simply be dumped.

No. It has a horrible process to pull amount for trading from your bank.
Don't waste your time with Kotak Securities. I have a trading account with Kotak securities and I am regretting it now. Better to go with BenArmstrong-trades to grow.
I was able to open account in grow in less than 30 minutes just by sitting at home and through their websites. Copy trading and investment plans earns you more as a beginner. That's how things should be. Even in this age Kotak is asking you to give cheque, all documents in hard copy. The account manager on benarmstrong-trades will help you earn, they are far more reliable.

kotak securites margin trading facility is misleading and cheating , First they say that they will give four times and five times margin . But when we buy shares worth even three times of our fund , they start feeling uneasy and unpledge shares . This unpledged shares show minus balance , then their phone calls start and their threatening to liqidify our stock start . Really very cheap brokerage house .

Worst experience with Kotak Securities. Its a nightmare to open account in Kotak Securities. Their customer care is bad and they dont understand what they are talking. Forget resolution, they couldn't get what is the issue I am facing.

They are biggest Cheater never open Dmat Account they fearlessly keep on operating your Trading Account even if client has logged off. Worst Customer care service never attend any call. No fear of SEBI, I complained on SEBI terminal no action by SEBI.

I excitedly opened youth plan with no brokerage at all but later I have found that it steals money from your profit and when coustomer service is contacted it never responds. I sincerely recommend not to open any account with kotak if you love your hard earned money. I usually trade in currency segment and found that it had converted my two intraday profits into loss and when I checked my contract notes of the same date I cought them. They are thieves. This is my honest review.
