Note: This additional fee will also apply to auto square off trades (positions closed by the system in case of high exposure trades, or liquidation by our Risk Management System due to any reason).

No. In order to enjoy free intraday trading, both legs of an intraday trade need to be executed by the client (self-generated trades) through our online trading platforms only.

In this scenario, the free intraday trading benefit would not be applicable. A flat brokerage of 20 per executed order would be charged for orders placed online (leg one). And 70 would be charged for the order placed through the dealer/customer care executive (leg two) (Subject to maximum of 2.5% regulatory allowed brokerage).

No, it won't qualify for zero brokerage. In this case, each leg of the trade will be charged 20 per executed order. Any modification done by the dealer/customer care executive will incur an additional charge of 50 per executed order.(Subject to maximum of 2.5% regulatory allowed brokerage)

Expiry/exercise or assignment trades will be charged ` 20 per executed order..
