What are CDSL charges?

CDSL charges a fee for transactions performed by the customers in their demat account. These charges are levied by the DPs (stock brokers) and passed on the CDSL.

The CDSL charges or demat account charges include:

• Account Opening Charges
• Account Maintenance Charges
• Debit Transaction Charges
• Pledge Creation Fees
• Pledge Invocation Fees
• Dematerialisation Charges
• Rematerialisation Charges
• Delivery Instruction Slip Charges
• Account Statement Charges

To know more about these charges please visit the Demat Account Fees & Charges page.

Note; while CDSL has fixed charges, it allows brokers to charge any fee from customers. That's the reason each broker has its own demat account charges.
