I don't get it why you guys are talking about charges for Pi? Why do we(traders) have to pay for basic things that are essential to trade? If Zerodha also start charging us for the new platform then how they are here to change the current scenario?
I am not saying that they should give us everything for free but instead they can let us use basic things for free and only charge for premium/extra stuff.

Zerodha will have to
1 .cover the data feed charges
2 .Provide PI application support.
These two will cost them and they have to charge us to sustain these two costs. Support of PI application will be ongoing because the numerous issues it will have and new features they will have to add.
you really think you will get everything from your broker for Rs 20. What kind of world are you living in? Wake up my friend.
and for Zerodha, please don't try to act like there will be no issue with PI as you will try to do it shortly after release. Many people know and understand the business of application support, me being one. So if you try and do that i will catch you. No harm in admitting mistakes. Take it in best interest and improve on it. This way you will earn more respect from community. Even esignal/amibroker/metastock has it own share of issues and these are supposed to be best in class after many many versions.
I also hope that you will do a proper BETA release of PI , so that you can avoid a lot of headaches and frustration for users after official release. I know you will do it if you are smart. i don't expect it from you though since you are not a software company. But since it is built in house you can afford to do it.
It would also be nice if you could mention the charges in advance. I just hope it will be cheaper than say esignal/amibroker/metastock + data feed charges.
