How is the Goods and Services Tax (GST) computed on total charges at FYERS?
At FYERS, a Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 18% is applied on certain components of your transaction charges. Understanding how this is calculated helps you estimate your actual trading cost more accurately.
What does GST apply to?
GST at FYERS is calculated at 18% and applies to:
It does not apply to statutory charges like SEBI fees or Stamp Duty.
Example of GST computation
Let’s say you have the following charges:
- Brokerage: ₹20
- Transaction Charges: ₹10
- Total Charges: ₹30
GST is applied on this total:
GST (18%) on ₹30 = ₹5.40
So, your final amount payable = ₹30 + ₹5.40 = ₹35.40
Use the Brokerage Calculator
You can use the FYERS Brokerage Calculator to estimate GST and other charges before placing a trade.
GST is only applied to brokerage and transaction charges—not to total turnover or profit/loss.
What if...
| Scenario | Outcome |
|---|
| I pay ₹0 brokerage | GST still applies on any transaction fees like exchange charges. |
| My transaction charges are low | GST will also be proportionally low, since it's percentage-based. |
| I trade frequently | GST accumulates based on total brokerage and transaction charges for all executed trades. |
