Where I can check how much brokarage and other taxes I need to pay on today’s traded stocks or F&O?
Hi @Vikram
When placing the trade, right on the Order Placement window - Dhan offers you an Transaction Estimator for every transaction that shows all the charges and breakup, including your price to exit to make the trade profitable.
Post trades, you will receive contract notes after settlement. Or you can also view full details of your realised trades in Trader’s Diary.
@PravinJ , please stop ignoring the need of virtual contract note that we as traders are requesting from dhan from a long time. I can see I am not the only one but every time someone ask this feature you give the same old reply to check it before execution of trades. We as option buyers don’t have time to check it while placing the order. We can only check it afterwards
Hi @himan718 Well, virtual contract notes are an extension to transaction estimator. Yes, may be we are not convinced with the need of this feature at the moment, if things change we will review this.
After trades are taken, contract notes will be available anyway after settlement is done, pushing it ahead of schedule before settlement isn’t something we are considering at this point.
Our thought process is simple here, as a broker we cannot issue contract notes unless trades are settled. Also when traders are trading, it needs to be quick and away from distractions. Transaction Estimator is an industry-first from Dhan and solves things for users quickly. Post settlement, there is Trader’s diary.
In Trader’s dairy it’s showing next day. I want to check on same day during trading. Now Zerodha is giving contract note feature in their order page. Here I can check how much brokarage & other taxes will be deduct after settelment. I can decide to trade further or not by seeing this contarct note summary. Same we expect from Dhan. You can check Zerodha platform for better understanding. This contract note summary feature is most useful for trader. Kindly check once.
Now I am using Dhan for trading, so Zerodha not using. If someone using Zerodha also, then I request him/her to share screen shot of contract not summary which is available in order tab.
@PravinJ @Hardik @Divyesh we need virtual contract note because this is necessary bcz we can’t wait for next day settlement and for contract note give option of virtual contract note this helps retailers to know about your charges will goes this help to avoid over trading and virtual contract note is virtual means they calculate virtual our give estimate of total charges of today’s trades I used zerodha to check virtual contract note I really impressed but I don’t do trade regular bcz they don’t support trade from chart feature that why I requesting you plz consider virtual contract note this is very important for us sometimes you feel this is use less but you see many people are demanding this feature
And you. Talk about trader’s diary they are just show piece trader’s diary not have any thing to analyse your performances. I also noticed many time traders diary not update till 8.30 am and also need many update and features in traders diary
- Filters : we need filters in traders diary bcz I trade in stock and fno and next day trader dairy show overall pnl and net pnl and we want to filter option so we can filter what was position in equity trading and what In fno

3 ) The ui of traders diary also need update and give more filters to analyse our past trade bcz this is very useful for traders

IMO, other trading journal platforms are charging upwards of ₹1500 a month.
Dhan’s Traders Diary is already showing our P&L and has access to the trade logs.
You can simply add some more graphs, P&L curve, win rate and charge maybe ₹500 a month for it. @PravinJ
Dear Dhan Team,
Kindly add virtual contract note feature as Zerodha. It’s helpful to everyone.
Is anyone from Dhan working on it.
I am not getting any update since last 2 months
Hi @Vikram, when placing an order, you will be able to see Transaction Estimator for every transaction that shows all the charges and breakup including your price to exit (breakeven) to make the trade profitable.
After completing trades, you will receive contract notes post settlement. Alternatively, you can access detailed information of your executed trades in the Trader’s Diary.
Nonetheless, we have noted your suggestion.
Suppose I am took average 10 to 15 trades in a day. It’s not possible to see the each trade order page and make summary of how much brokerage and other charges will deduct on each trade. So I requested to add virtual contract summary. Zerodha already provided it in order page.
I think it is not a big task to add virtual contract summary. Tentative summary also ok for us. I not requested for exact amount. I need to know whether to take trade further or stop trading for the day. If is possible only by seeing the contract nots summary.
Please don’t give only promise as Dhan will add it in future. If it is not possible to add this feature, then simply tell us as we can’t add.
So that we will think another plateform for trading.
Hi @Vikram At this time we are not evaluating anything on that lines. We feel transaction summary does a very good job + we are not sure if we can show contract notes before trades are settled by exchanges. Markets closes at 3:30 PM and in a few hours the actual contract notes are available based on settlement.
Hi @PravinJ We not required exact contract note summary.
Tentative contract note summary is Ok. There may be difference in virtual contract note summary and actual contract note summary but the difference is negligible.
Now we check each trade brokarge & other charges in Dhan Brokarge calculator by entering Quantity , buy and sell values. But it’s time consuming as we need to note all trades data and then can make summary manually.
It’s not suggested in market hours as we need to concentrate more on trading.
You can make virtual contract note summary by using Dhan brokarage calculater.
This change will defenetly help all traders.
Please once think on this as many traders including me requested this feature continuosly.
Once again I request you to check .
