Brokerage charges getting morphed with the Futures STT increase. 😳👇
Let’s take an example of buying and selling 5 lots of NIFTY FUTURES in one order:
Nifty lot size: ₹15 Lacs
No of lots traded in 1 order: 5 Lots
Total value of trade: ₹75 Lacs
Brokerage charged by KotakNeo: ₹10X2=₹20
STT: ₹75,00,000 X 0.05% =₹3,750.00
So for 1 lot average brokerage is ₹4/-(Round Trip) while STT is ₹750/-(Round Trip)
That’s 1 : 188
Even if you trade 1 lot in one order, it is 1 : 38 (₹20 v/s ₹750)
In short, Life changes for all Future Traders from tomorrow 1st April, 2026.

See the volume in worlds largest derivatives market. The breakeven point is not 14 points Its 14points + bid-ask spread if approx 8 to 10 points. If you trade even 10 lots its more than 5-6k Rs in slippage!! Over Regulation and Taxes kills any sector .
If you buy and sell 1 lot of nifty futures you are paying over 880 as tradinf cost
That is 14 points
Add spread 6 -10 point average
Total you need atleast 1500rs profit just to breakeven that is 24 points .
This is clearly day light robbery and tax terrorism.
After this if you somehow manage to make profit you have to pay 30% tax .
This is insane !!

Are you engaging in directional trading of Nifty futures?
One trade per day, with a 15-point breakeven threshold over 252 trading days, results in a total loss of 3,780 points solely due to taxation.
At a Nifty level of 22,500, this equates to a 16% annual reduction before any profit considerations.
This activity does not constitute market trading; rather, it represents a contribution to national development.
Additional costs for brokerage and slippage are not included in this calculation.
