Money management startup INDmoney has launched instant withdrawals via UPI for Indian stock investors, allowing traders to withdraw funds to their savings account instantly, even while trading on the same day.
The feature allows investors to withdraw their money of up to Rs 1 Lakh on the same day, which is crucial as stock brokers usually process client withdrawals after markets are closed and settlements are completed, a process that takes over 24 hours.
The service is currently available from 8 AM to 5 PM on trading days. Over the coming months, the company plans to extend this service to operate 24×7.
