How to change the mobile or email before opening a Zerodha account

Changing the mobile number or email ID before a Zerodha account is opened is a pre-activation correction, and it works differently from the modification you would use later. While the application is still in progress, before the exchanges activate the account, there is no self-service toggle: you raise a Zerodha support ticket giving the new and the current contact details, and the team updates them within 48 working hours. This is distinct from the post-opening flow in how to change your registered mobile number and how to change your registered email ID , which run through Console or Kite with an OTP and an in-person verification. This guide covers the pre-activation route and the uniqueness rule that catches people who simply start over.
