Charges schedule
Default plan: Standard. Statutory charges (STT, GST, stamp duty, exchange fees) apply on top and are uniform across brokers — the calculator breaks them out per trade.
Who it’s for
Active traders and cost-conscious investors who want zero-brokerage delivery, low flat F&O pricing, and advanced options/API/TradingView tooling.
Dhan web platform
The Dhan web platform lives at dhan.co and covers the same trading, holdings, funds and statements surface as the mobile app. Web is the better fit for charting, multi-monitor workflows, copy-pasting from spreadsheets and filling out account or KYC forms; the app wins on mobility, biometric login and fast order placement on the move. Both share one login and one set of holdings — what you do on web reflects on the app instantly and vice versa.
Can you buy bonds on Dhan?
Dhan is a fast-growing, profitable discount broker (9th largest by NSE active clients) run by Raise Securities Pvt Ltd, which holds OBPP enablement on both NSE (Aug 2024) and BSE (Sep 2024). Despite the registration, it has not launched a dedicated bond-investing product — as of 6 July 2026 founder Pravin Jadhav publicly said bonds are still 'on our list of things to do.' Today the only bond access is buying exchange-listed bonds and SGBs like stocks in the cash segment (₹0 delivery brokerage), with no bond discovery or curation tooling. So there is no curated bond product on Dhan yet; if/when it launches, bonds would settle into the same demat as your stocks and F&O. For now a specialist OBPP or RBI Retail Direct is the practical route.
- NO dedicated bonds product live as of July 2026 despite OBPP enablement (founder confirmed 'on our list of things to do', 6 July 2026)
- Exchange-listed bonds/NCDs/SGBs tradable like stocks on NSE/BSE cash segment via the demat account (search-driven, no curated bond storefront)
- Debt mutual funds (gilt funds, corporate bond funds, dynamic bond funds) at 0% commission via SIP/lumpsum
- Margin pledge accepted against 100+ ETFs and bonds (for traders, not a bond-buying feature)
- NOT offered: dedicated G-sec/T-bill/SDL primary auction access, curated corporate bond marketplace, tax-free bond storefront, 54EC bonds
