Angel Broking Fund Transfer Online
Whenever you open a trading account, before you place an order/trade, you need to fill-up your trading account with a requisite balance. Different brokers come with multiple plans depending on the initial deposit you transfer to your trading account.
Higher the amount you put in, lower is the brokerage you are offered in your trades.
It is like using a payment wallet which you use for travel, online shopping, food order, cab ride etc and before you use the product/service, you need to “recharge” the wallet.
In other words, you need to add money to that particular wallet.
In almost exactly the same mode, before you place any trade, the trading account needs to have funds too.
As far as the trust factor is concerned, although not many brokers will tell you this – but you can transfer the funds back after 3 weeks or 21 days post your initial transfer (as per SEBI norms).
And of course, this is applicable for Angel Broking as well.

Payment Gateways
This mode of transfer is one of the most commonly used methods where users can transfer funds from their respective bank accounts to their trading accounts instantaneously.

Most of the prominent banks such as ICICI, HDFC, Axis, Kotak etc offer their respective payment gateways but it depends on the partnership done by your broker.
In this Angel Broking fund transfer mode, you can either use your debit card or direct internet money transfer only.
There are aĀ couple of concerns about this transfer method that you must be aware of:
