Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is STT charged on both buying and selling?
For equity delivery, STT is levied on both buy and sell sides. For intraday equity trades, STT is charged only on the sell side.
Why do delivery trades have higher taxes than intraday?
Equity delivery attracts higher STT rates because long-term investments are taxed under different capital gains frameworks compared to short-term day trading.
How does stamp duty apply to stock purchases?
Stamp duty is a state-level tax charged exclusively on the buy-side turnover value of the transaction before the contract is settled.
