Every investor wishes to increase their returns, but there is one item that most investors overlook and that can cost them their profits; brokerage. Brokerage is the silent thief in your investment pail. A few rupees per trade does not seem significant on a minor scale, but when it can amount to hundreds of trades or years of investing, it can very effectively eat into wealth creation.
In this blog post, I will outline why low brokerage matters, how it affects your returns, and how you can invest smartly to build wealth, while enthusiasm for rupee hidden charges does not take away from this.
Many investors prioritize the selection of stocks, timing their entry and exit, or taking the advice of experts, while very few consider what they pay in brokerage fees.
Let’s consider this.
This is ₹40,000 taken straight from your profits, which you could have reinvested for more returns!
Imagine two traders with the same capital, strategy and returns. The only difference is the brokerage they pay.
Trader A (high brokerage) pays ₹200 per trade.
Trader B (low brokerage) pays ₹20 per trade.
Both make 200 trades in a year.
Trader A’s cost = ₹40,000
Trader B’s cost = ₹4,000
A difference of ₹36,000 in just one year. What 10 years of savings?! That is ₹3.6 lakh saved without any effort!
Brokerage diminishes compounding power in addition to profit.
Think of it this way: If you save ₹36,000 in yearly brokerage and reinvest in the stock market with an average return of 12% per annum; then after 15 years, that “saved cost” is now over ₹10 lakh.
In real terms, brokerage is a missed opportunity as well as an expense.
In a single day, day traders execute dozens of trades.. Even small commission costs per trade add up to hundreds of thousands over a year. Low commissions are a requirement for them.
Even if your trading is limited, why pay more than you have to? For long-term investors, paying less means having more money to compound over many years.
Beginners are usually starting with small amounts. High commissions make it that much more difficult to make money when capital is limited. Low-cost investing helps them remain enthusiastic to keep putting money to work.
Investing is more than just numbers; it’s the assurance that brokerage is minimal allows traders to:
Not every “low brokerage” platform is necessarily low-cost. Some providers will add unnecessary concealed fees such as:
