Futures - 0.05% of Turnover (Both Side)
Options - 1.5% of Premium or Rs. 100 which ever is higher. (Both Side)

Big disadvantage of Kotak Securities is that you can't sell the stock on the next day other that 'A' group shares and when the market is going down sharply, it makes big difference. :confused:

[Aakash]

Zerodha
Rs 20 per transaction
But there is annual maintenance changes of Rs.450. So I would avoid it.

[Minal]

But there is annual maintenance changes of Rs.450. So I would avoid it.
ShareKhan, Kotak Securities, India Infoline etc all charge AMC. As far as I know only Indiabulls has one time AMC.

I would say that one Stock Broker may be good for one and bad for another, so better first gather below info and decide yourself -
1- Go for a demo of product for speed, how easy to trade, looks :-)
2- Check whether broker trade in both - NSE and BSE
3- Check the integration of Brokerage account, Demat account and Bank account
4- In the last compare brokerages depending on your need

I have a Trading & Demat Account with Angel Broking. I got 0.02% intraday & 0.20% in Delivery (Enough brokerage), Even free Demat account (AMC free). But the Main problem is Penny stocks. Mostly penny stocks among all of them are banned to trade, Even Which can be Multibagger. Now, I am Thinking to Switch my Trading account with other securities. Which one will be better to trade with complete package like Lifetime free Demat, minimum brokerage as paying now, Good software, Online IPO & mutual fund options, No hidden charges & Special one Aloow to trade Iam mostly trade in Penny stocks.

[Madhura]

Mohan - Most of the big broker won't allow you to trade in penny stocks.
