What you need to open a Zerodha account

A PAN and an Aadhaar linked to your registered mobile number are the only two documents most clients need to open a Zerodha account online, because the Aadhaar-based eKYC pulls your name, photograph, date of birth, and address straight from DigiLocker and a UPI handshake usually verifies your bank account without any uploaded proof. Everything else on the checklist is conditional. You supply a cancelled cheque only if the bank check fails, and you supply income proof only when you want to trade Futures and Options . This page sets out each document, what it is used for, the exact F&O income thresholds, the differences between the online and offline routes, and the SEBI and KYC basis behind every requirement.
