Why is there a charge of ₹10.62 while transferring money to the Zerodha account?

When funds are added to the Zerodha account using netbanking a payment gateway charge of ₹9 + 18% GST is levied. This amount will be charged irrespective of the amount transferred (the minimum amount that can be transferred is ₹50).

To avoid this charge, funds can be transferred using UPI or IMPS. To learn how to transfer funds using UPI, see How to add money to my account using UPI? To learn how to transfer funds using IMPS, see How to transfer money to my account using IMPS,NEFT or RTGS?
