The “Client” is any individual or entity with an exchange-approved UCC (Unique Client Code) account with Stoxkart, able to trade various securities through Stoxkart (in compliance with various exchange and SEBI regulations).
“Superr API” is a suite of APIs, developer services, and associated software offerings.

The terms described in this document, any additional terms, terms within the accompanying API documentation, and any applicable policies and guidelines concerning the use of the APIs are collectively referred to as the “Terms.”
This agreement is between “You” (accessor and consumer of the APIs) and “Stoxkart,” the stockbroker offering broking services via the APIs. You may be a Stoxkart Client or an entity offering the APIs in turn to other Stoxkart Clients as end users.
1. Account and Registration
a. Accepting the terms
You may not use the APIs and may not accept the Terms if (a) You are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Stoxkart or (b) You are a person barred from using or receiving the APIs under the applicable laws of India or other countries including the country in which You are resident or from which You use the APIs.
b. Entity level acceptance
If You are using the APIs on behalf of an entity, You represent and warrant that You have authority to bind that entity to the Terms and by accepting the Terms, You are doing so on behalf of that entity (and all references to “You” in the Terms refer to that entity).
c. Registration
To access certain APIs, You may be required to provide certain information (such as identification or contact details) as part of the registration process for the APIs or as part of your continued use of the APIs. Any registration information You give to Stoxkart will always be accurate and up to date, and you’ll inform us promptly of any updates
2. API Usage
The APIs are meant to be used for building innovative investment and trading platforms (“IBT” - Internet-Based Trading) with the greater goal of increasing capital market participation in India. This may be for personal use, where You, a Client, develops a private interface exclusively for customising personal trading and investment experience, or this may be for building a trading platform. The development of trading platforms is bound by various norms and regulations stipulated by various exchanges and SEBI. You are responsible for ensuring You adhere to these platform guidelines and regulations and seeking appropriate regulatory approvals if necessary. If You seek to obtain exchange approvals for your platform as Stoxkart’s in-house platform, Stoxkart will provide the necessary assistance.
a. Permitted Access
You will only access (or attempt to access) an API by the means described in the documentation of that API. Any circumvention of the methods described in the documentation may terminate your access to APIs. Please note that You can’t display live market data obtained via Superr API to the public. Any such redistribution, if found, may result in the termination of your access to Superr API.
b. API Rate Limiting
Stoxkart may set limits on your use of the APIs (for instance, limiting the number of requests sent to a particular API) manually or via automated checks to ensure the stability of the APIs. If You need to use the APIs beyond the limits imposed by Stoxkart, You have to obtain express consent from Stoxkart by writing to the relevant department (Stoxkart may decline or accept such a request based on various factors)
c. Exclusivity
The API Terms are non-exclusive. You acknowledge that Stoxkart may develop products or services that may be similar and may be in direct or indirect competition with any platform that is built using the APIs.
d. Tracking and monitoring
By using the APIs, You agree that Stoxkart may monitor, track, and record all interactions and requests happening via the API, your own, and your end users to ensure the API's stability, security, and reliability.
e. Automated Tasks
The APIs are not meant for placing fully automated trades (without manual intervention). If you wish to use the APIs for full automation, you should seek the necessary approvals from the exchange. Stoxkart can provide the required assistance in obtaining approvals.
3. Your end users
You may use the APIs to build platforms which You may, in turn, offer to other Clients of Stoxkart (after obtaining the required exchange approvals). Neither Stoxkart nor anyone affiliated with the APIs may be held responsible for the losses suffered by the client or You arising from technical malfunctions of your platform or the APIs. Your end users, Stoxkart’s Clients, are bound primarily by the terms and conditions they agreed to at the time of their account registration with Stoxkart.
a. Ownership
As the APIs are restricted to – and only work with – the accounts of Stoxkart clients, all end users You offer your API-enabled platforms to are Stoxkart’s Clients. Any new user that You may refer to Stoxkart (who in turn opens an account with Stoxkart on their own volition) to offer your platform is also Stoxkart’s Client. While You may promote your services to such a Client, You may not claim any exclusivity to the Client or their data. Stoxkart may offer any service to any of its existing clients, including Clients referred by you, at any time.
b. User Privacy
You will comply with all the applicable privacy laws and regulations, including those related to your end users. You will adhere to Stoxkart’s privacy policy and provide a privacy policy for your end user that is clear and accurate.
