NEED TO IMPROVE A LOT IN MOBILE TRADING SOFTWARE & ALPHA TRADER (PC SOFTWARE) AS WELL....ITS NOT THAT HOW MUCH LESS BROKERAGE YOU ARE CHARGING....ITS THE MATTER THAT HOW MUCH TRANSPARENT YOU ARE WITH YOUR CUSTOMER NEEDS..

MOBILE SOFTWARE JUST SHOWS MARKET TO MARKET PROFIT OR LOSS....BUT DOESN'T SHOW THE ACTUAL PROFIT OR LOSS OF A SPECIFIC SCRIP......MEANS NOT TOOOOO TRANSPARENT TO THEIR CUSTOMERS.....OR THEY DON'T WANT TO BE..

THE SOFTWARE ADOPTED BY SAS DON'T WANT TO SHOW WHETHER THEIR CUSTOMER IS REALLY IN PROFIT OR LOSS......IN-SPITE OF PROVOKING OR GIVING THEIR CUSTOMER A WRONG SIGNAL OR DIRECTION...BY SHOWING MTM PROFIT OR LOSS

I ALREADY COMPLAINED REGARDING THIS....IF IT TAKES TOO MUCH TIME ....I HAVE TO SHIFT MINE ...AS WELL MY REFERENCES TO SOME OTHER PERFECT BROKER.

I have account since last 1 year and the ease of executing trades through Mobile App as well as desktop software is excellent. Back-office version is good and transparent. Customer queries are responded quickly. Overall till date great experience for me. 9/- per executed order or 0.10 whichever less (for Delivery Trades) is awesome plan.

About SAS brokerage is amazing to trade multiple time/lots. Just pay 999+tax then forget about per order charges.Its good brokerage saving plan. Friends just think if u pay rs 50+50 for one lot ce/pe you can''t trade much lots and if u pay rs20 per order then you can''t exit for cost to cost. but in SAS no need about that. if u exit cost to cost u will pay only govt taxes.
choice is yours. only problem is you can''t get more exposure for Fut Trades.
God bless you all

alpha mobile application is very excellent,
but now launch two in one application,
equity & commodity ,
in one application each and everything,
so many brokers provides single application equity & commodity also,
now sasonline think about it.

SAS online is one of the biggest thug among Indian brokerages house . They say you that they do not take brokerage charges if you opt for Rs 999 plan and so you carry Excess jobbing but guys wait , have you checked their brokerage they charge you 5000 / crore to compared to other per crore . In future segments also they charge 500 rupees extra per crore while in equity nearly 900 rupees per core extra compared to other brokerage house .

Reader,
Due to careless mistake fo SAS online , where they had not updated my account shared with them in first week fo October despite multiple emails...
ac was not updated for my DP leading below dividends not credited in my account;

This is unprofessional and very careless from SAS online...
My estimate for my loss of around 2500/- due to the same for below dividends which are not credited in my account.

please help on same so that it gets resolved; i do not want to chase companies for error of SAS online so ideally SAS online should help or credit from its own account..

i do not pay for brokerage and services due to these kind fo errors.

SAS is the worst broker I have ever come across. They randomly just disable trading in any scrip without informing you. Some IPOs are allowed to be traded in pre-open, some are not and there is no way to find out what they will do next. They are just whimsical.

When you call the customer care they behave as if they are the kings of the world and the response I got from one senior representative was "f*** your money".

I''''ll really suggest to go with any other broker but SAS.

Company has a 3rd class risk management system. They are not allowing option trading even if its Nifty 50 stock with At the Money strike price if total trade volume of that day in the market is less than 25 ( approx). So evenif you have sufficient funds to place in margin, you will have to wait till some one else place the orders first. That also means that (1) you can not trade at the opening of the market because at that time volume in option contract of that day is Zero. (2) You can not trade in the Options with strike price having far distance from spot price. That means you will face restrictions in hedging and you can not apply certain option strategies. (3) You should keep other broker in spare who allows you to trade without such restriction and can not keep only one trading account with SAS Online.

Very cost effective. Customer service is great. Website is poor. Lot of information come as surprise while use. E.g. if you need to transfer money through IMPS from your bank to trading account you need to share your transaction details with SAS where as for NEFT its not required

Most bad experience with SAS is they only think about their profit at all aspect not customer friendly. Their equity plus policy & ledge against stock is very bad for customer..only for their profit..
