- Zerodha
Zerodha has recently launched an improved Stock SIP journey on their website. This let's investors allocate funds in SIP mode, across various stocks and instruments.
Simplify the design of the initial screen, especially for new investors, who may not understand what a SIP is. Focus on copy, terms used, and elements that may lead to cognitive load. The goal should be to make the design intuitive and easy to get started.
Note: Note: You need to design only 1 screen for the desktop site (one fold only). You can consider only the specific frame/model for the redesign. Please do not use any annotations or explanations in your designs.

The submission should be an image (png or jpeg). This can be exported from a design tool (such as Figma, Adobe XD etc) or any tool that you are comfortable using. However, please do not post hand-sketches or only wireframes, as the evaluation is on the quality of design output.
Note: Please do NOT add any annotations, explanation notes to the design. The output should be pure design.- These are design focussed challenges. So the evaluation is based on the quality of the design output. Given time constraints, we realise that putting out pixel perfect designs may not be possible. Hence, more weightage will be given to clear communication of the improvements (in terms of design) and an acceptable design quality. Wireframes and hand sketches are discouraged.
- Also, we expect basic design hygiene to be followed: alignment, font and color consistency et al
- Depending on the challenge context, you may choose to use/change the products design guidelines. We leave this discretion to you.
- We are NOT looking for ‘glitz designs’, if you get what we mean! Functional, quality output is what is needed
