BSE revised transaction charges and the true-to-label circular

Sat, 20 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

BSE revised transaction charges are the equity-cash and derivatives transaction fees the Bombay Stock Exchange has levied since 1 October 2024, when it replaced its volume-based slab pricing with a uniform per-unit charge to comply with SEBI’s true-to-label circular. The transaction charge is the fee the exchange takes on every trade it clears, passed through to the client by the broker. After the revision it is the same per unit of turnover for every broker, regardless of how much that broker trades.
