Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a Trading account and a Demat account?
A trading account is used to place buy and sell orders on the NSE and BSE. A Demat account holds the securities you own — shares, mutual funds, bonds and sovereign gold bonds — in electronic form. The trading account sits between your bank account and your Demat account: money moves out when you buy, shares move in when the trade settles. You need both to invest in the stock market, and with Bajaj Broking both open together in a single free online application.
How much brokerage does Bajaj Broking charge per trade?
Brokerage is a flat fee per executed order, not a percentage of trade value. On the Freedom Pack you pay Rs. 20 per order on delivery, intraday, futures and options; on the Professional Pack you pay Rs. 10 per order on the same segments. The Freedom Pack is free for the first year and Rs. 431 a year after that; the Professional Pack costs Rs. 2,500 a year. Account opening is free on both. Statutory charges — STT, GST, exchange transaction charges, SEBI fees and stamp duty — apply on top at prevailing rates.
Can one sell the shares without a trading account?
No, a trading account is must for selling shares available in Demat account.

Minors can open a trading account under specific circumstances, such as for selling securities obtained through inheritance or IPO investments. The account is managed by a natural guardian until the minor reaches adulthood.
