Direct market access for retail investors?

@ShubhS9 @nithin @siva
SEBI is all set to allow algotrading for retailers
So will there be a provision made for retailers to have access to Direct Market Access and an opportunity to also have exchange co-located servers(of course its going to be expensive)? These were available to institutions since way back in the late 2000s
Even today it is possible for a retailer to get a company formed and gain access to DMA and colo server but does the new algo framework let a retailer do away with the need to go via the company route altogether?

While broker APIs like kite connect are good, true tick by tick data is 10s of GBs worth of data everyday like nithin once mentioned. It would be awesome if it was possible for retailers to have access to this data putting them on an equal footing with institutions
