For details of Mero share software & process to use.
Looking at these benefits I don’t think it is costly. Because many website companies are charging more amount for portfolio trackers. Some companies are charging upto Rs.2500 annually. Just taking Rs. 50 CDSC is providing above benefits including portfolio tracker isn’t it cheap.
If we don’t use this software than around Rs. 50 will be incurred in each issue. For eg; If not mero share than one should visit respective branches of banks, it incurs transportation cost, fill up the forms it take times, possibilities mistake in formation like, CRN number, DEMAT number & others, etc. But through mero share software there is less chance of mistake in information, it take less time to apply for any issue. System will detect all information one should just input CRN number properly.

I think CDSC have to make some improvement in Mero share software. In portfolio section we can just watch net value of share base on last trading price. So, it should improve to show profit/loss statement based on daily, yearly & as a whole. For such improvement investor should raise voice. If such improvement is made than mero share will be the best for technology friendly investors.
