Big picture: Futures is the most efficient segment on a percentage basis. Equity intraday sits in the middle. Options long-only cost the most relative to premium turnover.

Equity Intraday (MIS)~0.04% per round trip
Futures (FUT)~0.01% per round trip
Options — Long Only~0.20% of premium turnover per round trip

Cost Breakdown

Equity Intraday

~0.04% per round trip

Equity intraday has a relatively low percentage cost, although smaller positions can feel the impact of fixed charges more significantly.

Example Simulation

Buy 40 RELIANCE at ₹2,500 and sell at ₹2,500.

Buy value40 × ₹2,500 = ₹1,00,000
Sell value40 × ₹2,500 = ₹1,00,000
Round-trip turnover₹1,00,000 + ₹1,00,000 = ₹2,00,000
Approx. charges₹83
Effective cost₹83 ÷ ₹2,00,000 × 100 = 0.0415% ≈ 0.04%

Futures

~0.01% per round trip

Futures offer the best cost efficiency on a percentage basis. As the notional value increases, the percentage impact of the platform charge becomes smaller.

Example Simulation

Buy 1 NIFTY FUT at ₹24,500, lot size 75, and sell at ₹24,500.

Buy value₹24,500 × 75 = ₹18,37,500
Sell value₹24,500 × 75 = ₹18,37,500
Round-trip notional₹18,37,500 + ₹18,37,500 = ₹36,75,000
Approx. charges₹401
Effective cost₹401 ÷ ₹36,75,000 × 100 = 0.0109% ≈ 0.01%
F&O

Options — Long Only

~0.20% of premium turnover

Long options can have a small rupee charge, but the cost represents a higher percentage of the premium turnover compared to Futures and Equity.

Example Simulation

Buy 1 NIFTY CE at ₹250 premium and sell at ₹250 premium.

Buy premium value₹250 × 75 = ₹18,750
Sell premium value₹250 × 75 = ₹18,750
Round-trip premium turnover₹18,750 + ₹18,750 = ₹37,500
Approx. charges₹82
Effective cost₹82 ÷ ₹37,500 × 100 = 0.2187% ≈ 0.2%

How Platform charges work

Platform charges are calculated based on the applicable instrument and its notional value. For a complete round trip:

EntryCostExitCost

The figures shown represent the approximate total cost for the complete round trip, rather than the cost of only entering the position.

Guidelines

Things to remember

  • • Costs are applied according to the instrument selected.
  • • The examples above are illustrative.
  • • Platform charges are separate from your P&L and risk-management rules.
  • • Costs may affect your realized P&L and should be considered when planning activity.
  • • The applicable charges are the same on the evaluation and Pro accounts.
Example

Simple P&L Example

If your strategy generates ₹10,000 gross profit but incurs ₹400 in platform charges:

Gross P&L₹10,000
Platform charges- ₹400
Net P&L₹9,600
