What is ICICI Direct?
ICICI Direct is one of India's largest full-service brokers, owned by ICICI Securities. It uses a plan-based pricing model — the default MoneySaver plan is percentage-based, but customers can opt into iValue (₹299 one-time, flat ₹20 F&O) or one of three Prime tiers for progressively lower delivery rates. Three-in-one accounts (bank + demat + trading) are its signature feature.
ICICI Direct — questions, answered.
It's a tool that estimates the full cost of a trade on ICICI Direct — including brokerage, STT, GST, exchange transaction charges, stamp duty, SEBI charges, and DP charges. You enter the trade size; we run the math.
Brokerage is the fee a broker charges to execute a trade on your behalf. In India, discount brokers typically charge a flat ₹20 or a percentage of the order value — whichever is lower. Equity delivery is often free.
ICICI Direct charges per executed order. The fee depends on the segment — delivery, intraday, futures, or options — and is computed against either a flat amount or a percentage of order value. Government taxes (STT, stamp duty, SEBI, exchange) and 18% GST are added on top.
STT (Securities Transaction Tax), stamp duty, SEBI turnover charges, exchange transaction charges, GST (18% on brokerage + SEBI + exchange + DP), and DP charges on equity delivery sells.
Because the broker fee is only one part of the cost. Government taxes and exchange fees often exceed the brokerage itself on small trades. A full breakdown lets you see the real cost of any position before you place it.
