The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has announced significant updates to its transaction charges across various market segments. These changes will come into effect from October 1, 2024, and impact traders involved in the cash market, equity futures, equity options, as well as currency futures and options.

In a bid to streamline operations and align costs, the transaction charge for the cash market will now be ₹2.97 on each side per lakh of traded value. This move could slightly increase the cost of trading in the cash segment but ensures better service quality for all traders. Similarly, equity futures trading will now incur a fee of ₹1.73 on each side per lakh of traded value. The transaction charge for equity options has been set at ₹35.03 for each side per lakh of premium value.

For currency futures, traders will need to pay ₹0.35 each side per lakh of traded value, while currency options and interest rate options now see a transaction charge of ₹31.10 per lakh of premium value. These updates are expected to affect the transaction costs of traders across all market segments, making them adjust their trading strategies accordingly.

These new trading fees come in line with global practices and help NSE maintain its competitiveness in the global financial market. Traders dealing with equity options and currency options will now need to factor in these charges when calculating their overall trading costs. The revisions are part of the NSE's broader initiative to provide a transparent and efficient trading environment.
