Zerodha trading platform experienced a temporary freeze, leading to complaints from users on social media. Due to this outage, stocks such as India Cement, which were no longer restricted under the F&O ban, were incorrectly displayed as still under the ban.
This resulted in orders being unable to be placed for a period until the trading platform resumed its functionality.
The platform encountered another technical issue on June 3, coinciding with the surge in domestic benchmark indices following exit polls that suggested a potential third term for PM Modi’s government in the Lok Sabha elections.
Users took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to express their frustrations, sharing lengthy threads detailing their grievances, venting in extensive posts, and engaging in discussions that spanned across multiple paragraphs.
