What your brokerage pays for
Lower than most full-service brokers
0.15% on delivery against the 0.20%–0.50% most full-service brokers charge, with the same research, dealer desk and branch behind it.
No hidden extras
Discount brokers win on the headline rate, then add a DP charge every time you sell. Selling four stocks a month comes to about ₹700–₹1,100 a year in DP charges alone. Here it is ₹0, and so are call & trade, pledges, square-off fees and physical statements.
A plan built around you
Every client can ask for a custom brokerage plan tailored to their volume and needs, so the gap to a flat-fee broker narrows as you trade more.
Other brokers' figures are typical published ranges as of October 2026, not any one broker; plans vary and change. Statutory charges (STT, exchange fees, SEBI fee, stamp duty, GST) apply at every broker. Third-party algo platform subscriptions, if any, are billed by the platform. Work out your own trade in the brokerage calculator.

Low brokerage is the start. The real value is a branch that works the way a personal finance office would.

Is the Demat account really free to open?+
Yes. Both the Demat and trading accounts are free to open at Parasram India Panipat. The only recurring cost is the Demat AMC of ₹885 per year; the trading account has no AMC.
How is equity delivery brokerage calculated?+
Delivery brokerage is 0.15% of the trade value. For example, buying shares worth ₹1,00,000 costs ₹150 in brokerage, plus statutory charges like STT, exchange transaction charges and GST.
Are there hidden charges?+
No. Beyond brokerage you pay only the standard statutory levies (STT, exchange charges, SEBI fees, stamp duty, GST) that apply at every Indian broker. Use our brokerage calculator for an exact breakdown before you trade.
Is call-to-trade really free?+
Yes. Unlike most brokers who charge ₹20-50 per call-to-trade order, our traditional dealer desk is free (₹0). Call your dealer, place the order, and get a confirmation - ideal for busy professionals who can't watch screens.
Do you offer MTF (Margin Trading Facility)?+
Yes. We provide custom MTF exposure for HNI clients and other investors, set according to each client's risk profile and requirements. There is no fixed upper limit on MTF exposure. Speak to the branch to set up MTF that fits how you trade.
Do you help with algo trading?+
Yes, free of cost. The branch handles algo registration and setup for you and helps with strategy building and deployment, and algo exposure can be planned around your risk profile and needs. Algo trading carries market risk; no returns are promised.
Why is your brokerage higher than a discount broker's?+
On the headline rate a discount broker is cheaper per order. What the difference buys is a dealer desk, daily research, branch support and free algo registration and setup - with no hidden extras: DP charges on selling, call & trade, pledges, bank transfers, physical statements and paperwork are all ₹0 here. Against other full-service brokers our delivery brokerage is lower than most. Custom plans narrow the gap further for every client.
Do you offer custom brokerage plans?+
Yes - custom brokerage plans are a standard offering, not an exception. Each plan is tailored to the client's trading volume and needs. Call +91 9416400314 or visit the branch at Shakuntala Complex, Palika Bazaar to set one up.
