// how charges are modelled

The calculator uses the published per-broker fee schedules and applies the statutory charges that every Indian broker must collect on your behalf — STT (Securities Transaction Tax), exchange transaction charges (NSE/BSE), SEBI fees, stamp duty (state-uniform since 1-Jul-2020) and GST at 18% on brokerage + exchange + SEBI charges.

The "best broker" highlight on each row reflects the highest net P&L for your exact trade inputs — useful when comparing a delivery-heavy vs F&O-heavy strategy. For intraday and options, the ₹20 cap typically makes the discount brokers tie on brokerage; the difference comes from execution speed, platform stability and customer service (not modelled here).

// frequently asked questions

For equity delivery — Zerodha and Dhan charge ₹0. For intraday and F&O — discount brokers (Zerodha, Upstox, Dhan, Groww) cap at ₹20 per order or 0.03–0.05% of turnover, whichever is lower. Options brokerage is a flat ₹20 per order at most discount brokers regardless of premium.
