Axis bank queries--Demat a/c

[nRiTeCh]

So my new co. gives Axis bank a/c.

I received the kit etc last month. I also got Axis demat a/c as well but as I dont bother and got no knowledge on share market I havent registered for and activated demat a/c.

Now since yesterday I'm getting call from Axis to purchase SBI 5 shares for 1k along with brokerage charges of some 100 bucks & all this is for long term basis and this will activate my investment/demat a/c.
They further stated that yesterday market crashed like anything hence this is the best opportunity for buying SBI shares etc.

I put it on hold though but they keep calling.

So wanna ask guys here who are already into trading or who owns Axis a/c with demat facility that should I go ahead with the purchase or how??

the sbi stock is good so as a stock u can go ahead irrelevant to which demat u use , I have an axis demat the first 6 months was zero transaction charges but had to pay STT u could ask for the same

If possible, get a Zerodha account and do brokerages yourself. Their brokerage charge is very low (around Rs.20 per transaction).
