Every line on a contract note, with the broker fee kept separate from the statutory levies
Estimates only, not financial advice. What you type stays on your device. Checked against sources on 30 Oct 2026.Intraday trading charges on 1,000 shares bought at ₹100 and sold at ₹101 come to ₹35.77 before any brokerage: STT, exchange and SEBI fees, stamp duty and GST, out of a ₹1,000.00 gross profit. Each charge is worked out on its own line and names the circular its rate comes from; add your broker's fee to see the net.
| Segment | Statutory charges | With ₹20 an order brokerage | Net profit after both |
|---|---|---|---|
| Equity intraday | ₹35.77 | ₹82.97 | ₹917.03 |
| Equity delivery | ₹223.52 | ₹270.72 | ₹729.28 |
| Equity futures | ₹57.08 | ₹104.28 | ₹895.72 |

Choose the Segment and enter the Buy price, Sell price and Quantity.
Pick the plan chip closest to your broker, and set the Depository charge on a sell for delivery trades.
If you trade on BSE, type its rate in Exchange charge, if not NSE.
Read every charge line in the table, from brokerage to GST, and the total as a share of turnover.
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.
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.
Break-even is the price the sell has to reach before the trade has made anything, once every charge is paid. On a small trade with a flat fee per order the distance is surprisingly large, which is the clearest argument against trading in tiny quantities. The figure is shown under the total here.
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.
