A user wrote, “Zerodha has done it again. Very cleverly hangs its server so that retailers can’t take advantage of gap down opening. It will start working once market is settled. Very clever Zerodha.” 

Another user wrote, “One of the worst trading app I have ever seen, there is always glitch in your system whenever market is trading. People loosing their money whenever market is trading. People [are] loosing money due to your glitches, for what you are charging brokerages.” 

Here’s how the Internet reacted 

The development comes days after Zerodha founder and CEO Nithin Kamath said in a tweet the online brokerage had 1 crore customers. Kamath tweeted, “We, Zerodha, just got to 1 crore customers. Looking back, the biggest tipping point was AADHAR for online account opening. Cant thank the government and SEBI and exchanges and depositioneries enough for making this happen.”
