Hi , I am new for stock trading. could you please tell me the minimum amount required to start equity trading. I prefer for zerodha platform.
I see zerodha price is Rs 20 per executed order.
Accordingly what will be the total price including tax for a buy order executed , and total price for a sell order executed…

Hi Vimal,

There is no minimum amount that you can invest to start trading through Zerodha. But one thing that you need to know is Zerodha offers zero brokerage on equity delivery . All the rest of the trades are at 0.01%or Rs.20 whichever is lower.

Zerodha is one of the first brokerage houses in India to be transparent in terms of charges. You can check the taxes and charges you will incur even before you place a trade on their brokerage calculator tool:

BEWARE
Zerodha Brokerage calculator hides one imp details.
It doesn’t use State Stamp Duty in the calculations.
Hence it shows faulty P/L.

Now in this case there won’t be much difference due to very small trade.
But with large trades…huge difference occurs
