The brokerage fee is charged by the broker every time an order gets executed on the trading platform. This brokerage is accompanied by other government charges & taxes. Therefore, a new investor might get perplexed by the charges levied on orders. Note that along with brokerage, all brokers will levy statutory charges like STT, Turnover Fee, SEBI Charges, Stamp Duty & GST on every order. Still, as compared to full-service brokers, the discount brokers charge a comparatively lower brokerage fee.
