by Hitesh Varpe Finance Consulatant There were days when people had no access to high-speed technology for on-the-go services. They had to visit every shop or branch for buying groceries, clothes, and even waited in long queues outside banks to access their services. Time changes instantly, and now, our lives revolve around gadgets. Every service is available on apps today, and it has become more accessible to everyone from their homes and offices.The trading industry has also adopted new methods, including its availability on digital platforms like smartphones. Traders can open a Demat account following simple steps. But before that, it is essential to know the basics.
