Zerodha doubles fee for some intraday F&O trades to Rs 40

Zerodha is doubling brokerage fees to ₹40 for certain intraday derivatives trades from April 1. This applies to traders not meeting SEBI's 50% cash collateral rule, a gap Zerodha previously covered. The move follows declining volumes and potential STT hikes, prompting other brokers to consider similar pricing adjustments to offset rising costs.
