If you're reviewing your FYERS contract note and wondering why you don't see DP (Depository Participant) charges listed, you're not alone. These charges are real and applicable—but they don’t appear in the contract note for a reason.
What are DP charges and why are they excluded?
DP charges are levied by depositories like CDSL or NSDL for transactions involving shares in your demat account. FYERS acts as an intermediary, and the actual delivery of shares is handled by the depository. Since these charges are not trading-related fees, they aren’t included in your contract note.
The contract note covers only trading-related charges such as:
- Brokerage
- STT/CTT
- Exchange transaction charges
- SEBI fees
- GST
These fees are applied by the exchange or broker, not the depository.
Where can I see DP charges?
While you won’t find DP charges in your contract note, they are recorded in your Ledger as a separate line item. You can view them by going to:
FYERS > Funds & Margin > Ledger
Each DP charge will be listed with a description (e.g., "CDSL DP Balance Transfer") along with the date and amount.
What if...
| Scenario | Where DP Charges Appear |
|---|
| I sell delivery shares | Reflected in Ledger, not in contract note |
| I do BTST or delivery trades | DP charge shows in Ledger on T+1 or T+2 |
| I check my contract note only | DP charge won't be listed |
| I sell intraday (no delivery) | No DP charge applies, so nothing is shown anywhere |
