Example
The brokerage firm’s charges for all these four categories are different for each. Brokerage charges are applicable on both sides when you buy a share or sell a Share. For instance, suppose you purchased a share and sold it by today. That will be regarded as intraday trading.
Suppose you purchased a share of one lac rupees, and firms charge you 0.02% as a brokerage. Then, you will have to pay 20 rupees as a brokerage charge on the buy-side.
Now, in an intraday, if you sold your share with a profit of one thousand. This means you sold your share for one lac one thousand rupees. And again, you will have to pay a brokerage fee of 0.02%. It means you paid 20.2 rupees brokerage on the sell-side.
Then, the sum of your total brokerage fee will be 40.2 rupees plus 18% GST on the brokerage charge. So it means 40.2x 18/100= 7.2 rupees GST.
Here, the final sum will be 40.2+7.2= 47.4 rupees.
