Is this coming to Dhan and what does it really mean for day traders?

Hi @Kusum_Kapadia Here is the change that we implemented.

Update on DP Transaction Charges by Dhan

What’s Changing?

Previously, if you sold the same stock multiple times in a day, each sale incurred a separate DP charge because early pay-in transactions were processed immediately as shares were sold from your free holdings. This allowed you to get the “credit for sell” benefit right away, and the charges followed CDSL guidelines.

However, based on user feedback, we’re simplifying the process to improve your experience. While the old method was correct, we believe this change will make it easier for you.

New Process:

From now on, if you place multiple sell orders for the same stock in one trading day, you’ll only be charged once for DP transactions, even for multiple “early pay-in” transactions. This change aims to eliminate your concern and make things easier and smoother for you.

This new process is already live and will apply to all sell transactions from January 31, 2025, onwards. The single DP charge will be applied starting February 3, 2025.
