Zerodha Brokerage Charges
Last Updated: Jul - 23- 2018
Before 2010, all the stock brokers in India used to charge brokerage in percentage on total turnover. Zerodha is the first stock broker in India to disrupt existing brokerage pricing structure by introducing a flat fee-per-trade model.
Zerodha’s logic is that the cost of executing a trade doesn’t change with the increase or decrees of trade size, then why should brokerage change? This is how Zerodha has come up with flat fee-per-trade brokerage model & fixed a flat fee of Rs 20 per executed order irrespective of trade size.
To keep Smaller volume equity intraday traders interested, they have decided to offer 0.01% or Rs 20 whichever is Lower.
Brokerage charges for Equity Intraday, Futures & Options, Currency & Commodities are- 0.01% or Rs 20 whichever is lower.
Brokerage Charges for Equity Delivery is absolutely ZERO for life-time irrespective of number of trades one does. Zerodha was the first stock broker in India to offer Zero brokerage.
Zerodha Coin platform offers direct mutual fund investments up to Rs 25,000 free of charge, thereafter Rs 50/month subscription is charged. The Coin platform lets you buy both regular and direct mutual funds.
Usually, in regular mutual funds, the distributor gets paid about 1.5% upfront and another 1% trail commission every year. It makes sense to buy direct mutual funds directly from asset management companies on Coin platform.
