Open free dematFor intraday equity trades, brokerage is charged at 0.03% of the trade value or ₹20 per executed order, whichever is lower (Zerodha flat-fee model). Additional statutory charges include STT (0.025% on sell side), exchange transaction charges, GST at 18% on brokerage, SEBI charges of ₹10 per crore, and stamp duty at 0.003% on buy side.
Under Zerodha's pricing model, delivery equity trades are completely free — zero brokerage. However, STT is higher at 0.1% on both buy and sell sides, stamp duty is 0.015% on buy value, and exchange transaction charges and SEBI fees still apply.
For F&O Futures, Zerodha charges 0.03% or ₹20 per order (whichever is lower). For F&O Options, brokerage is a flat ₹20 per order (₹40 round trip). STT was increased in 2024 — futures STT is 0.05% on sell side, options STT is 0.15% on sell premium. Exchange transaction charges differ for NSE vs BSE.
Points to breakeven shows how many price points the stock/contract must move in your favour just to cover all charges. If total charges are ₹200 and you traded 100 shares, the breakeven movement is 2 points (₹2 per share). Any gain beyond this is your actual profit.
MTF lets you buy stocks with broker funding (typically 25% margin + 75% funded). Zerodha charges 0.3% or ₹20 per order brokerage, plus interest of 0.04% per day (14.6% annualised) on the funded portion. So a ₹4L trade held 30 days at 25% margin = ₹3L funded × 0.04% × 30 days = ₹3,600 interest, on top of regular delivery charges (STT, exchange, stamp duty).
For equity (intraday and delivery), NSE charges 0.00307% and BSE charges 0.00375% of turnover. For futures, NSE is 0.00183% — BSE charges nothing for futures. For options, NSE charges 0.03553% of premium turnover vs BSE's 0.0325%. NSE is generally cheaper for derivatives trading.
Currency has NO STT/CTT (govt tax) — only brokerage (0.03% or ₹20 lower for futures, flat ₹20 for options), exchange charges (NSE 0.00035% futures / 0.0311% options), SEBI, stamp duty (0.0001%) and 18% GST. Commodities on MCX have CTT (0.01% futures, 0.05% options sell side) plus MCX charges (0.0021% futures, 0.0418% options) and standard brokerage/GST.
