DP charges are the depository participant`s charges for the services provided by them, and it would differ from DP to DP.
With Zerodha the charges are below:
IL&FS Charges - Rs.8/-
NSDL Charges - Rs.4.50/-
Total DP Charges are Rs.14/-(12.50+service tax)
When you sell the stock from your Holdings it need to be debit from your Demat account.
So when ever the stock debited from your demat account there would be DP Charges of Rs.14/-.

DP charges include Depository charges and Depository Participant (DP) charges. The Depositories are NSDL & CDSL and Depository participants are members of Depositories with whom you open your demat account (Eg: IL&FS). DP charges are applicable whenever you sell any shares from your demat account. This charge is a source of revenue to the Depositories & its participants. Similar to how Exchanges charge Transaction fee, Brokers charge brokerage, Depositories & DP’s charge DP charge.
NSDL charges a depository fee of Rs.4.50 per debit transaction. The Participant charge would vary depending on where you’ve opened your demat account but is normally a flat fee per sale transaction.

https://zerodha.com/charges says DP charges as Rs.13.5 per scrip per day(irrespective of quantity).
So, is it
DP charge per scrip = (No of days that scrip is held in account) * (Rs.13.5) ?
What is the DP charge if i
- Bought and held 100 stocks Scrip A for 30 days?
- Bought and held 200 stocks Scrip B for 30 days?

Having it reworded to
â‚ą13.5 per scrip the day(irrespective of quantity) it is debited from demat account when stocks are sold. â‚ą5.5 per MF (irrespective of quantity) the day it is debited from demat on redemption. Charged by depository (CDSL) and depository participant (Zerodha)

- No DP charge
DP charge is applicable only on the day it is sold. Rs 13.5 irrespective of the quantity per scrip.

1a). Ok. So, DP charges levied only when the stocks in demat account are sold and is irrespective of quantity.
Selling 100 stocks of scrip A after 30 days from DEMAT account is no different from selling 200 stocks of Scrip B after 60days from DEMAT account as far as DP charges are concerned (Both attracts same DP charge of Rs.13.5). Right?
1b). Is there any DP charges for positional long/short calls in Futures & Options
2). Similarly for MF, number of days a MF is held in DEMAT as no effect on DP charges.
1 a. Yes
1 b. No, only for stocks in your demat when sold.
2. Yes

@nithin why note write “*Above calculator does not include stamp duty and dp charges. Check below for state wise stamp duty. All charges explained.” in a more smaller font? You should highlight this in your brokerage calculator as well.

Stamp duty in a lot of states is for a total contract note and not a % value of the trade. So it is impossible to show stamp duty correctly for those states on the brokerage calculator. Hence we give an option to simulate a contract note.
