About the Currency Futures Brokerage Calculator
Currency futures (like USDINR, EURINR, GBPINR and JPYINR) are quoted per unit, and each lot is 1,000 units. ATS charges 0.01% brokerage on trade value, and importantly there is no STT on currency derivatives.
Enter your buy and sell prices and the number of lots; the calculator applies the 1,000-unit multiplier automatically. It totals brokerage, exchange charges, 18% GST, the SEBI fee and stamp duty, then shows net P&L and breakeven.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there STT on currency futures?
No. Securities Transaction Tax does not apply to currency derivatives in India, which makes currency trading cheaper on the tax side than equity or commodity.

ATS charges 0.01% of the trade value as brokerage on currency futures, applied across both legs of the round trip.
