Frequently asked questions (3)
India-ல investment-கு best app எது?
Stocks: Zerodha (Kite — most popular), Upstox (cheapest), Groww (beginner-friendly UI). Mutual funds: Kuvera, Coin by Zerodha (zero commission). NPS: NSDL or eNPS portal. Avoid: trading apps that push F&O constantly — most retail traders lose money there.
Credit card vs UPI — எது better?
UPI: free, instant, but no rewards, no protection. Credit card: 1-5% rewards, 50-day interest-free credit, fraud protection, but late payment kills you (₹500+ fees + 3% monthly interest). Best combo: UPI for daily small spends, credit card for large purchases (paid in full each cycle).
Crypto India-ல legal-ஆ?
Buying/selling/holding legal. Trading taxed at 30% on gains + 1% TDS on each transaction. Mining/staking: tax unclear. RBI does not recognize crypto as legal tender. Use licensed Indian exchanges (CoinDCX, WazirX, KuCoin India) for compliance.
