NSE-BSE transaction fees changed after SEBI instructions

NSE and BSE have made this change in transaction fees after the mandate given by market regulator Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) in July.

In that mandate, SEBI had required stock exchanges to have a uniform flat fee structure for all members of market infrastructure institutions. Through this, SEBI wants to change the structure of different fees in different slabs based on volume and activity.
