Taxes & charges
What is Brokerage and trading charges?
Also called: Brokerage, Contract note, DP charges
Hinglish mein padhein: Brokerage aur trading charges kya hote hain?
Every trade carries brokerage plus statutory charges: STT, exchange transaction charges, SEBI fees, stamp duty and GST.
Discount brokers charge a flat fee per order; full-service brokers often charge a percentage. DP charges apply when you sell delivery shares.
Charges can eat a large share of profits for frequent traders — always compare net P&L, not gross.
