Ek trade par kitna kharcha lagta hai, brokerage se lekar STT aur GST tak
Estimates only, not financial advice. What you type stays on your device. Checked against sources on 30 Oct 2026.Trade par sirf brokerage nahi lagta. STT, exchange transaction charge, SEBI turnover fee, stamp duty aur GST bhi jodkar asli kharcha banta hai. Brokerage aapke broker ka apna rate hai isliye wo aap type karte hain; baaki sab sarkar aur exchange ke tay kiye hue hain aur unka source page par likha hai. Neeche break-even price bhi milta hai.

Exactly one number in the cost of a trade belongs to your broker. Every other one is set by the government or the exchange and is identical for everybody. This page keeps the two apart, because confusing them is how people compare brokers badly.
Brokerage is yours to enter. A discount broker charges nothing on delivery and twenty rupees or 0.03% per order, whichever is lower, elsewhere. A bank broker charges several times that with no cap. Neither is printed here as fact: named starting shapes are offered, every field is editable, and the figure in the total is the one on your own tariff sheet.
GST is charged at 18% on brokerage, the exchange charge and the SEBI fee, and not on STT or stamp duty: GST is a tax on a service, and a tax is not a service. And stamp duty falls on the buyer alone, in every segment, since collection moved to the clearing corporations on 1 July 2020, which is why a round trip is not symmetric.
The rest of the article, and all 7 questions about Brokerage Calculator, are on the Brokerage Calculator page.
On a round trip of one lakh each way with free brokerage, roughly 233 rupees: 210 of securities transaction tax at 0.1% on both legs, 15 of stamp duty on the buy, 6.45 of exchange transaction charges, 1.20 of GST and 21 paise of SEBI turnover fee. Brokerage and the depository fee come on top.
GST is a tax on the supply of a service. Brokerage, the exchange transaction charge and the SEBI turnover fee are all charges for services and carry GST at 18%. Securities transaction tax and stamp duty are taxes in their own right rather than payment for anything, so GST is not applied to them.
Segment chuniye, buy price, sell price aur quantity daaliye, aur apne broker ka rate type kar dijiye; baaki charges kaise lagte hain wo page khud jod deta hai. STT, exchange charge, SEBI fee, stamp duty and GST are fixed for everybody, so only the brokerage line is yours to set.
The taxes do, because STT, stamp duty, the SEBI fee and GST are the same wherever the trade is executed. The exchange charge is not: each exchange sets its own. The figure here is NSE's, from its circular of 27 February 2026. BSE's equity cash charge is supported by no BSE notice we could find, so enter your own.
Rates and rules change; check the source before you rely on a figure.
