Pay-in Methods for Fund Transfer

Funds can only be transferred from client bank accounts that are mapped in the Stocko back office. Clients can transfer funds into their trading accounts using the following methods:

  1. Payment Gateway
    Funding your trading account through the Payment Gateway is one of the quickest methods to transfer funds from any linked bank account directly into your trading account. It is instant and costs only ₹9 + GST per transfer. You can select Equity/Commodity as per the product required.
  2. NEFT/RTGS
    Funds can be transferred electronically to your trading account from any linked bank via NEFT/RTGS. Transfers from an HDFC bank account will result in instant credit. Transfers from any other bank usually take 3-4 hours for funds to be credited. Details can be checked here.
  3. UPI
    The Unified Payments Interface (UPI) payment option (e.g., Google Pay, BHIM, etc.) allows you to transfer funds instantly from your mapped bank account to your trading account.
  4. Cheque Deposit
    You can transfer funds to your trading account by cheque from any of your linked bank accounts. A scanned copy of the cheque must be sent to us for updating.Note: It may take 3-4 working days for cheques to clear and funds to be reflected in your trading account.
