1. How is brokerage calculated?

Brokerage is that amount, which is payable by the investor to the broker on transaction of a particular trade.
Formula: Total Brokerage = [(Total No. of Share)* (Unit Value of the Share)]*(Brokerage Percentage)
Example: If you buy 1000 shares of a company at the rate of ₹500 per share and sell those 1000 shares at the rate of ₹550 per share; the total brokerage calculated is ₹4200 ((1000 * 500) + (1000 * 550) * 0.4%).
In this case, the trader has to pay ₹4200 brokerage to the broker.
