What are the barriers to develop a trading platform for indian markets?
Heard of Zerodha in India?
It's not a free platform
It’s mostly free. Very nominal charges between 20rs and 100rs which is $1.50 at the top end
Robinhood is big because: 1) there was a nice market gap, 2) they worked hard+smart and made it big. Maybe there is #1 in India, but #2 is all you.
Leave the intellectual property theft and cheap knockoffs to the Chinese. They’re much better at it.
What are you Indians good at?
Indians have cornered the “doing the needful” market.
