Top Online Share Trading Sites

Ever since the dematerialization of shares happened in India, stock trading has shifted its base to the internet world. It made share trading a lot easier for people and more of them started buying and selling shares through various websites, which provided equity investors with facilities to do online trading. Online trading became so much popular so that today websites not only provide facilities to do share trading but also for Futures and Options trading, Commodities trading, Overseas trading, IPO application, Mutual Funds etc. and more.
