BTST trading lets you sell shares before they are fully settled in your demat account. If you're using this feature on FYERS, it’s helpful to know whether any charges apply—especially DP (Depository Participant) charges that are often overlooked.
What is BTST and Why Do DP Charges Apply?
In BTST (Buy Today Sell Tomorrow) trades, you purchase shares and sell them before they're credited to your demat account on the next trading day (T+1). At FYERS:
- Shares are credited to your demat account on T+1
- If sold before full settlement, they’re debited from your demat account
- This debit action triggers a DP charge as per depository rules

DP Charges for BTST at FYERS
Here’s what you need to know:
- ₹12.5 + 18% GST per stock (ISIN) per day
- Charged once per ISIN per day, regardless of how many times you sell it that day
- Applies only to sell-side BTST trades, not when you buy
You can view the complete charges list on the FYERS Charges List page.
Example
If you buy 100 shares of a company on Monday and sell them on Tuesday, a single DP charge is applied. Even if you sell the shares in two or more transactions on Tuesday, you’re charged only once for that ISIN on that day.
What If...
| Scenario | Outcome |
|---|
| You sell BTST shares in multiple orders on the same day | Yes, but only one DP charge applies per ISIN. |
| You sell shares after they are fully settled (after T+2) | No, DP charges do not apply once shares are fully settled. |
| You do BTST in two different FYERS accounts | Yes, each account will incur DP charges separately per ISIN. |
| You buy and sell shares on the same day (intraday) | No, DP charges do not apply for intraday trades. |
