15%

The recent hike in STT on futures and options, alongside new buyback taxation, has led to significant selling pressure on brokerage stocks. Angel One and BSE saw declines of up to 15% following the announcement in the Union Budget 2026-27. Traders are concerned about increased trading costs impacting market activity.

This development may dampen sentiment in the brokerage sector, as higher costs could deter retail participation in F&O trading. 📉
