Our Take on 5paisa
Part of the IIFL group and launched in 2016, 5paisa competes purely on price: a flat ₹20 per order across every segment — and unusually, that flat fee applies to equity delivery too (it can drop to ₹10 on paid subscription plans). Account opening is free and the Basic plan carries no AMC. The trade-offs are that the lowest brokerage requires a paid plan, and the app and support draw more mixed reviews than the category leaders. For cost-focused traders comfortable with a flat per-order model, it's among the cheapest ways to trade.
