Work out the real cost of an intraday, delivery or F&O trade before you place it, brokerage, STT, exchange transaction charges, SEBI fee, stamp duty, DP charges and GST, calculated to the rupee on a schedule modelled on real Indian market charges, including the Budget 2026 STT revision. Free, no login required.
This free brokerage calculator shows the real, all-in cost of an NSE trade before you place it. Enter your buy price, sell price and quantity, pick the segment (intraday, delivery, options or futures), and it breaks down every charge to the rupee, then shows your gross profit and your net profit after all costs. It works for an intraday brokerage calculation, a delivery brokerage calculation and an options or futures brokerage calculation on NSE, with no login required.
The price difference between your buy and sell is never your actual profit. A set of charges applies to every trade, and this calculator includes all of them.
The segment you pick changes the numbers, which is why an intraday brokerage calculator and a delivery brokerage calculator give different results for the same price move. Intraday (MIS) equity charges STT only on the sell side and carries no DP charge. Delivery (CNC) charges STT on both sides at a higher rate and adds a DP charge when you sell. Options are charged on the premium value with STT on the sell-side premium, while futures are charged on turnover. Switch the segment tab above and watch the same trade cost a different amount.
Look at the gap between gross P&L and net P&L. That gap is the total charges, and it is the minimum the price has to move in your favour just to break even. For active intraday traders taking many trades a day, this gap is the single most underestimated reason a strategy that looks profitable on raw price moves ends up flat or negative. Knowing your break-even move before you trade is one of the most useful habits this calculator can build.
For intraday (MIS) equity, brokerage is typically a small percentage of turnover capped at a flat amount per order, applied on both the buy and the sell leg. On top of brokerage, intraday trades carry STT on the sell side, exchange transaction charges, a SEBI fee, stamp duty on the buy side, and 18% GST on the brokerage, exchange and SEBI portions. This calculator adds all of these to show your true intraday cost.
For intraday equity, STT is charged only on the sell side at 0.025% of sell turnover. For delivery (CNC), STT is charged on both the buy and the sell side at 0.1% each. That is why a delivery trade usually carries more STT than an intraday trade of the same size, even before the DP charge on selling is added.
Yes. Options brokerage on NSE is charged on the premium value, with STT on the sell-side premium, so an options brokerage calculation uses premium, not share price. Futures are charged on turnover with STT on the sell side. Both differ from equity intraday and delivery, which is why this calculator has separate tabs for each segment.
A DP (depository participant) charge is a flat fee, typically around ₹13 to ₹16 plus GST, applied once per stock per day when you sell shares out of your demat holding. It applies only to delivery (CNC) sells, not to intraday trades, and it does not depend on quantity: selling 1 share or 1,000 shares of the same stock on the same day attracts the same single DP charge. Pick the delivery tab above and the calculator adds it to your sell-side costs automatically.
This is an educational estimate on a schedule modelled on real exchange, SEBI and government charges, including the Budget 2026 STT revision. The government and exchange charges are standard, but brokerage itself varies by broker, and rates can change, so treat the result as a close, honest estimate rather than an exact broker quote. It is not investment advice.
