Dear Sirs,

When I purchase or sell shares/MF, amounts in the following heads are also paid.

Brokerage + GST

Exchange Transaction charges

STT

Sebi turnover fees

Stamp duty.

Some are minuscule, but some charges like the brokerage, STT are high. For the purpose of ITR2 filing, of these which expenses can be included in cost of acquisition and which can not be? I am an NRI and this is for the purpose of calculating capital gain/loss.

Your response is appreciated and thanking you in advance.

Regards

Rose
