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.
Statutory & exchange charges
These are set by the government and exchanges — they apply on every trade through any Indian broker, not just BlinkX. 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, 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. DP charges apply separately on delivery sells. The calculator handles all of this automatically.
The BlinkX brokerage calculator runs a real trade through these rates and breaks every charge out — brokerage, STT, GST, stamp duty, exchange, DP — by segment.

BlinkX charges ₹25 per scrip as DP (depository participant) charges on the sell side of every equity delivery trade — flat, regardless of quantity. It is levied via the depository (CDSL/NSDL), separate from brokerage.
Account opening is Free (no trading or demat account opening charges) (one-time). Demat AMC is Rs 300 per year (free for the 1st year). These are separate from per-trade brokerage — see the BlinkX demat account page for the full recurring-cost picture.
Every BlinkX trade also carries statutory and exchange charges that are identical across all Indian brokers: STT/CTT, stamp duty (buy side), SEBI turnover fees, exchange transaction charges, and 18% GST on brokerage + SEBI + exchange. On small trades these often exceed the brokerage itself.
