Mumbai: A Mumbai-based investor, Dr Aniruddha Malpani, took to social media to accuse online brokerage firm Zerodha of preventing him from withdrawing Rs 5 crore from his Demat account despite having over Rs 18 crore in his withdrawable balance. The post quickly went viral, sparking a debate among traders and financial experts over withdrawal limits and investor awareness. Zerodha co-founder Nithin Kamath later clarified the situation and informed that his payments were processed.
