TradeSmart — questions, answered.
It's a tool that estimates the full cost of a trade on TradeSmart — 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.
TradeSmart 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.
