FundsIndia — not really NRI friendly

NRI's beware. The quick account opening process is all hype. It's very cumbersome and I had to resort to multiple calls to the on-boarding team just to get it activated. They don't respond to emails at least in my case they did not. Finally when they did activate the account, several features were disabled and I was told that the hardcopy paperwork is required, despite their site claiming quicker provisional activation for 15 days. I unfortunately made 1 investment through them, but might not continue. I will be looking at ScripBox, Zerodha and fundsupermart as possible options.
