Axis Bank 3-in-1 account

Thank You so much for sharing your feedback on Axis 3-in-1 account. I have opened a Savings a/c but yet to get my account number. As soon as I get it, I'll go for the Demat & Trading a/c. So should I open the trading stuff only when the market is open? I mean, your friend who followed the instruction and waited till Monday, got his account locked?

what are you saying man.
AXIS is new name for UTI bank only. Thats what has happened

Geojit you will not have the option to add the watch list unless you have premium account or you trade in such a way that the brokerage is above Rs300.

Coolcritic, can you again quote all the charges you are getting with Axis
Today I talked with them they are telling 0.55% on delivery and 0.10 on ID.
Fut 0.05 on each leg
Options 2.5% or min 100 per leg.

Schedule of charges:
Below Rs. 10lacs: 0.55%
10lacs-30lacs: 0.50%
30lacs-75lacs: 0.40%
75lacs-2crore: 0.20%
Above 2crore: 0.15%

Minimum brokerage Rs. 20 or 2.5% of trade value, whichever is lower (Here obviously Rs. 20 is lower as minimum of Rs. 1000 has to be traded, 2.5% of which comes to Rs. 25)

Intraday: 0.10% for each leg of transaction
Service Tax: 12.36%of brokerage
STT: 0.10% delivery Cash segment
0.02% Intra-day Cash segment

20 free calls/month. Additional Rs. 20/call

Actually the 0.33% that I quoted previously was told by an Axis Bank employee but today I had gone to thebranch to take a detailed sheet of charges.

Hi,
I would also be intrested in finding out from you what your experience has been.

Thank you,

Amiava

Hi! The charges that I mentioned just a few posts ago are the ones levied by Geojit. Your data says that for both intraday and delivery, its 0.03% which is impossible!

As far as the calls go, I have no clue of it since I don't call them. I trade using my computer at home.

The account opening charges are Rs. 500, and annual maintenance Rs. 250.

They use the Geojit website for trading purposes, not the UTI website, and they use ODIN terminal.

Hope this clarifies your doubts. Get back to me if you need any further clarifications.

P.S. I have been using Geojit since the past month and a half, and their service has been satisfactory, but if you are more into Intraday, then this is not for you. This is good for investors. As said, they charge a minimum brokerage of Rs. 20. So if you transact for an amount of Rs.10000, then 0.1% comes to Rs.10, but they would charge you Rs.20, plus ST, STT. Also, for transactions of a lesser amount, you would run into losses unless the scrip you have selected, shoots up on a given day, like it happened with JP Associates on Monday and yesterday. So go through all the pros and cons of Geojit.
