The pledge creates a lien on the shares in favour of the broker (and ultimately in favour of the exchange&rsquo;s clearing corporation). Zerodha charges Rs 30 plus 18 percent GST (total Rs 35.40) per pledge instruction, and the same charge applies per unpledge instruction when the lien is released.</p>
