If you have applied for opening an account with Zerodha and sent across your application, it generally takes 24-48 working hours for your account to be activated. Any discrepancies in the submitted forms or documents would delay the account opening process.

Once your account has been opened, you would receive a welcome email from 'no-reply@zerodha.com' to your registered email address. This email will also have your login ID and the link to set your Kite password
