Kotak Securities web platform
The Kotak Securities web platform lives at www.kotaksecurities.com and covers the same trading, holdings, funds and statements surface as the mobile app. Web is the better fit for charting, multi-monitor workflows, copy-pasting from spreadsheets and filling out account or KYC forms; the app wins on mobility, biometric login and fast order placement on the move. Both share one login and one set of holdings — what you do on web reflects on the app instantly and vice versa.
