The first step is to fill up your name, phone number, and email id in the form below. Make sure the mobile number and email id are not already present in the Zerodha database, or you will get a duplicate record error.
#3. Logging In
Next, you need to visit the Zerodha application form page by clicking HERE. The page asks you to log in with your email id and a password. Remember that you will get your password in your mail once you submit the form above.
However, if you do not receive a password, kindly use the FORGOT PASSWORD link to reset the password.
#4. PAN Card Details
The next page will now ask for your PAN card details. Please provide your PAN card number and date of birth. Make sure that you enter your PAN card details correctly as they cannot be changed later.

Now, once you submit the PAN details, it will forward you to the payment page where you need to pay the Zerodha account opening fee. Choose what type of account you want to open (Trading+Demat Rs. 300) OR (Commodity Rs. 200) OR Trading+Demat+Commodity (Rs. 500).

- Your PAN card
- Your Aadhar card
- Your bank statement (preferably 6 months)
- Your canceled cheque (should be personalized, having your name printed)
Your Aadhar will be used to digitally sign the forms if you are already KRA / KYC verified. In this way, you can generate your client id within 5 minutes. You can also start trading once the account is open. You will also receive the trading id and password and back-office id and password through the mail. But you need to submit 2 pages of hard copies within the next week to continue trading.

Lastly, you need to print, sign and send the following 2 pages to Zerodha’s head office:
