Yes, there has been a recent change and now DP Charges are applicable on BTST trades. I came across a support page explaining it. From what I understand, it has been done so that corporate actions (like dividends, bonus) are credited directly to the client’s bank/demat account instead of the current arrangement where they are first credited to Zerodha and then passed on to the client’s trading account. Also, due to this change, TDS on dividends will reflect directly in one’s 26AS (or not if one has opted for Form 15G/H) rather than the current practice where it mandatorily collected at Zerodha’s end (Refer to TDS on Dividend - Pledged Holdings - #8 by Nakul) and then reflected in client’s 26AS on a later date - normally within a quater (Refer to Ajustment of TDS on LIQUID BEES DIVIDEND for units pledged - #3 by VenuMadhav)
