Transparent. Auditable. Educational.

Last Updated: 30 June 2026
About This Portfolio

This portfolio exists to demonstrate transparency in financial research. It documents real, executed investment decisions — not hypothetical or back-tested scenarios — along with the reasoning behind each one and the outcome that followed.

Readers are encouraged to evaluate our process, not to imitate this portfolio. Every decision shown here reflects an individual case study, not a recommendation for any other investor's circumstances.

This page is provided for educational reference. The Google Sheet linked below remains the official, continuously updated source of truth — this page is a periodic summary of that record.

What Every Rupee Paid For

Understanding Transaction Costs

STT

Securities Transaction Tax — a government tax on every buy. For delivery trades: 0.1% of trade value. This cannot be avoided.

Brokerage

Our broker charges ₹0 on delivery trades but ₹20 per order on intraday trades. Amounts under ₹1 reflect minimum fee thresholds.

Exchange Charges

A fee charged by NSE/BSE for using their trading platform. Very small — typically 0.003% of trade value.

GST

18% GST is applied only on brokerage and exchange charges — not on the trade value itself.

Stamp Duty

A state government charge applied on buy trades. 0.015% of trade value, capped at ₹1,500.

SEBI Fees

A small regulatory fee charged by SEBI — typically ₹10 per crore of turnover.

Auto Square-off Fee

A one-time ₹59 charge, applied when an intraday position is automatically closed by the broker at day's end.

Why This Exists

Our Reasoning

Financial research should be verifiable.

Claims are easy to make. A public, dated record is harder to dispute — and easier to learn from.

Publishing outcomes builds accountability.

When results are visible to everyone, including the mistakes, there's nowhere for selective reporting to hide.

Readers deserve evidence, not claims.

We would rather show you what actually happened than tell you what we believe will happen.

Transparency improves research discipline.

Knowing every decision will be public is, by itself, a strong incentive to think more carefully before making it.
