Which 5paisa plan fits whom

5paisa runs 3 plans. The right one depends on how often you trade and which segments you use — not on the headline rate alone.

Regular

Flat per-order pricing across segments — fits active traders who want a predictable cost regardless of order size.

Power Investor · ₹599 / month

A paid plan — worth it once the brokerage you save each month clears the subscription, i.e. for frequent, higher-volume traders.

Ultra Trader · ₹1,199 / month

A paid plan — worth it once the brokerage you save each month clears the subscription, i.e. for frequent, higher-volume traders.

Demat & account fees

Charged separately from brokerage. DP charges apply on equity delivery sells; subscription fees (if any) apply to the broker’s paid plan.

DP charges (per sell)

₹12.5

Charged once per scrip per day on delivery sells, regardless of quantity.

Subscription fee

None

Default plan: Regular. Other plans may charge a different fee — see the brokerage table above.

Account opening

₹0 (free trading and demat account opening)

One-time, charged at signup. Demat AMC is Demat AMC free for the first year; approximately ₹300 per year thereafter (₹25 + GST per month) per third-party data. See account opening for the full process.

Statutory & exchange charges

These are set by the government and exchanges — they apply on every trade through any Indian broker, not just 5paisa. Values are percent of turnover (per side).

Charge	Equity delivery	Equity intraday	Futures	Options
STT / CTT	0.1%	0.025%	0.05%	0.15%
Stamp duty	0.015%	0.003%	0.002%	0.003%
SEBI charges	0.0001%	0.0001%	0.0001%	0.0001%
Exchange txn charges	0.00297%	0.00297%	0.00173%	0.03503%
GST (on brokerage + SEBI + exch)	18%	18%	18%	18%

STT is charged on the sell side for equity delivery and intraday, and on the sell side for options (on premium) and both sides for futures. Stamp duty applies on the buy side only. GST is computed on the sum of brokerage + SEBI + exchange transaction charges. The calculator handles all of this automatically.
