What are the applicable charges for transacting in Government securities (G-secs) ?
The charges involved are as follows:
- There are no brokerage charges to invest in government securities through Kite. However, a minimum amount of ₹0.01 will be charged per contract note. As per taxation rules, a service cannot be provided for an absolute 0 fee, due to which a token amount of 1 paisa is charged.
- The charge to exit G-sec before maturity on Kite is the same as exiting any other security held in the demat account. To know the charges, see the list of charges.
- Securities transaction tax (STT) is not applicable when investing in SGB , G-Sec , T-Bill and SGrB.
