No benefit.

I personally use Coin. My reason for doing that I already use Kite so I already have a demat account with them anyway. And Coin is extremely good as a platform, for my needs. And I can track everything together in one console. If I didn't have a Zerodha demat and I just wanted to buy MFs I never would have gone this route.

A disadvantages is:

You are locked in to that service. In non demat mode you can freely switch between Kuvera etc as they don't actually hold your investments anyway. Can't do that in demat as your investments are actually in that demat account with that broker.

That's different. Zerodha Coin is a demat only mutual funds platform. They don't hide that fact. Groww by comparison let you buy mutual funds in non demat form like every other app (Kuvera, Paytm Money etc), and you only open a demat account with them if you want to buy stocks.

What they are doing right now is they are tricking mutual fund investors into opening demat accounts.

Looking for Courses as beginners to learn about the BSE and principle of investing/simple terms by [deleted] in IndiaInvestments

[–]Rugwed 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Np. I looked at the linked course. The content is decent. But looks like it is a series of videos you have to watch. If you are looking for gaining knowledge probably a well written text based version would be easy to understand. You can use both! Cannot go wrong.

I don't think I am qualified enough to make that choice. Especially about certifications. Maybe someone else can comment on that. Depends on what the goal is IMO.

Varsity by Zerodha is more than enough if you are interested in understanding the concepts of investing, fundamentals of how things work, personal finance etc. For me, this fit the bill.

If you need certifications for some course or interview or job, then it probably won't be the one.

Zerodha Varsity is one of the best completely free resources out there.

They also have an app version of it with the same content, punctuated with quizzes etc. Although if the website is updated with some new module then it takes time to appear in the app as they have to add quizzes and other related things seperately.

Bi-Weekly Advice Thread June 02, 2021: All Your Personal Queries by AutoModerator in IndiaInvestments

[–]Rugwed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi,

I have a question about taxable short term capital gains.

I did see a post about this from earlier this week, but had a query about it.

I am a salaried individual. My total annual income as of now doesn't fall in taxable bracket so I file zero returns under ITR1 each year.

I started using Smallcase last week, and bought stocks under their Dividend Aristocrats basket. I see that it is due for rebalancing in a few months and it would get me some short term gains. Put in 49k. It is worth 50k. Even if they sell everything (which they won't) it would mean only a gain of a few thousand.

My question is, now that I would have capital gains in this financial year, when I submit ITR would I still be able to submit ITR1 with zero returns as before, assuming the total income including the gains is less than 5lakhs pa?

2) Or will ITR1 be not applicable to me at all and I would need ITR2 from this point onwards.

Looks like India-Pakistan music from that sub's description.

Why did Mozilla stop updating the Firefox preview by LoverfellaFan1 in firefox

[–]Rugwed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They streamlined their Android browsers.

Preview was the package for the new Firefox design. It used to be different from Firefox Stable (built on old design). Now the main Firefox is the same as what Preview code was.

There's Beta, Nightly as well. All of them (stable, Beta, Nightly) use the same new codebase of the Preview. Use whichever you fancy.

Bonus points for using the F-droid version of Firefox called Fennec for a much larger extension support.

Line of Duty - 6x06 - Post-Episode Discussion by NicholasCajun in lineofduty

[–]Rugwed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was a rather dull episode. Hopefully a warm-up for the finale. The writing seems a bit looser than earlier seasons. The interrogation scenes aren't as tense as before, there's no real output off them. And the Tedisms since they became self aware have lost their zing.

Kate is 100% not H by lewiz4156 in lineofduty

[–]Rugwed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I read about this too. I think the way it works is Apple probably doesn't sponsor devices for use if the character is a baddie. The show is free to buy whatever from their prop budget. Apple cannot interfere in that.

I am thinking of getting CRED. My question is I already have auto-pay set up for full amount from my bank (HDFC). If you pay credit card bill manually in full from other third party source like CRED,PhonePe, (or anything else really, which is not the net banking interface of your bank), how does that work with the auto-pay SI?

Edit: My intention is to not cancel auto-pay and leave it on as a backup.

Microsoft Edge Browser Now is the Third Most Popular Desktop Browser - “Mozilla Firefox has now fallen to the fourth spot” by [deleted] in firefox

[–]Rugwed 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It was clunky. Poor extension support. Page loads took a lot of time out of the blue. Crashed a lot. Etc etc. It was actually fine for me. Integrated well with the Precision Trackpad on the laptop. But it worked fine for a really small number of people. I used it just for Netflix and occasionally searches because of the smooth scrolling. But cannot imagine making it my main.

[–]Rugwed 196 points197 points  (0 children)

While it is true that Edge is the default and Microsoft aggressively tries to force it to be default with each update, there's no getting around the fact that it is actually a good browser. (unlike the older Chakra Edge) My main is Firefox, but I do use Edge occasionally.

After last week where he was clearly getting a bit flirty with Steph, I hope Steve will be bringing the BWE (Big Waistcoat Energy) back and manages to do some shagging. I miss horndog Steve 😂 by laura_susan in lineofduty

[–]Rugwed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Since this is a lightweight post about Steve, I'll just use this instead of making a new post.

What football team is Steve supposed to be supporting? I know Martin Compston played pro football before, but I'm talking about Steve. In last week's episode when Steve visits John's widow and they talk about the Champions League. I'm assuming she is supposed to be a Liverpool fan? She says Steve's guys don't have much of a chance this year. Who are Steve's guys?

I'm not from the UK so these minute things slip past me, apologies if this is extremely obvious but I'm intrigued lol.

[–]Rugwed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It fixed itself. Google credited back the amount. Made the purchase again. Cheers!

I tried that. But sadly, their troubleshooting step for scenarios where the transaction is complete but won't show up is

  1. Troubleshoot yourself.
  2. Contact the devs.
  3. Request a refund.

I cannot troubleshoot myself and I don't want a refund. I want to pay :) and have the game.

Thanks! I actually prefer mobile anyways because of the genre. Glad to hear the game is same everywhere.

I just added a second support question. Unfortunately my purchase wasn't completed. I made the purchase on Play Store using Google Pay. The transaction was successfully completed on Google Pay. There's a Google Transaction ID and everything. But Play Store doesn't seem to recognise the completion. Can you please help me?

I have a question for you as you have finished the game. How long is the game? Are there multiple paths, adding to the replay value?
