Clearly, the product is a hybrid offering the benefits of zero-cost trading for a monthly fee. It simply results in faster break even for regular traders.

This also means that the product is meant for active traders and may not be advantageous for small investors who do delivery-based trades in equity segment. Such users can shift to Indiabulls’ discount broking plan which offers a flat fee of INR15 per trade.
