Hi,
Kite 3.0 is still in beta, once it’s complete you will not be asked for login, but will redirect to Q , like it’s happening with the current version of kite.
Cheers
I agree with Rupesh.
Typing 2 times is like the 90s and I have stopped using your app. Regarding RBI, how can other banks be allowed implement fingerprint? I have seen this in Axis, ICICI, Citi, etc… I have my MF and stocks there too. So what is problem here? One idea is to have option in security for users to either select 2FA or use fingerprint. So your 2FA is also there as per RBI but never asked as users have taken a conscious decision for his choice and you or RBI are not responsible. And user has choice to use his fingerprint. This is how other banks have implemented. You need to study how you can be still better than others.

I don’t think this is a nice idea, looks like these people are short sighted especially when we have accounts in our family members names do they think it will be possible for me to place the order for my college going kid to login?, moreover people who are 70+ are they tech savvy, like my parents? Sorry I don’t agree.
Fully agree with you. The login and 2FA should continue as it is in my opinion. It’ need to be ONLY ONCE each day unlike in many other sites where if your system is inactive for more 15 mts gain you have to login fully again. This isonly once a DAY and then all you require is to unlock your pc, tab or smart phone.
I fully vote for the current set up. The system has to be rigorours especially when you have all your hard earned money within that.
OTP can be troublesome and expensive for people who are abroad. Also I have seen trouble with finger prints in case of elder people. These aspects also need to be considered.
- Heard of Google Authenticator 2FA app?
- User can choose whether to stick with these Q&A or switch to OTP.
- OTP can be provided either on Kite app OR sent to registered mobile OR sent to registered email.
So user chooses his preferred 2FA.
Exchange regulations do not allow us to use TouchID (iOS) as 2FA. We’ve asked.
Let’s not forget something… It all comes down to security of your trading account…
- If your fingerprints are hacked, you can never change them.
- If your 2 questions are hacked, you can always change them.

What about Google Authenticator 2FA?
or
OTP to your email/mobile?
Let the users decide whether they want to go for OTP or the traditional way of answering the questions. But at least give them option to decide for themselves. Instead of forcing to answer 2 questions at every login.
Hi Rupesh, suggest you read Harshajyoti_Das answer, above. After all ultimately what is important is the safety of your account.
bad idea
except for aadhaar
What is safe according to you and why do you think its the best solution?
Finally, Google Authenticator based TOTP has been implemented for login.

When login at kite web. the otp comes to mobile only. can it come to email also. sometime mobile otp gets delayed or doesnt come.
@ShubhS9 Actually I mean to say “2FA App Code” . For Kite web login, I have to go and first login to mobile app. For that I have to give username/password → and then SMS/email otp. then register biometric. Ones there login I have to generate “2FA App Code”.
And then come to kite web. and login.
Very tedious and slow .
On app, you can enable device lock, after this you won’t have to enter SMS OTP each time you login to app.
Alternatively, you can also enable TOTP, after this App Code will not be required for logging in to Kite web and TOTP apps can be installed on your desktop/laptop too. You can check the process here.
I have two logins. so this may not be helpful.
I will try the other option.
While others like Aditya birla send you sms/email the moment you login and one can use that immediately to log-in. Is this not possible. ?
Can’t you enable biometric? I can do it in finvasia which has made the login process quick and easy.
