Anybody has any experience in investing in a foreign stock market such as India for a Sri Lankan resident?
Do we have broker / agent specialized for that, an online trading account for transactions, how to deposit and withdraw money?

Thanks. I appreciate if you could give some advice on these. This would be helpful to everyone.

Brokers / agents / web sites
Do you get an online facility
How about the transaction cost
How did you transfer money and charges
How did you withdraw money and charges
Your experience
What to look out for
