Round-trip recovery
Add a trade leg with quantity, rate and broker fee per share — the calculator computes brokerage, SST, CDC and the all-in net cost in real time.
Composition of the total charges added on top of your gross trade value.

To exit profitably you must recover both legs — the buy charges and the sell charges. Your break-even is roughly +Rs 0.0000 / share above your weighted-average entry, or about +0.000%.

On PSX, your real entry and exit prices are not the screen price — they're the screen price plus brokerage, taxes and CDC charges. This calculator strips out the surprise: get an exact, line-itemised view of every rupee that leaves your account.
Step by step
Add one row per trade leg
Enter the quantity, your fill price, and the broker fee per share. Multiple rows let you model averaging-down, partial fills, or both legs of a round-trip.
Add statutory levies
SST is added on the broker amount — pick a percentage rate or a fixed PKR figure. CDC investor-account charges go in as a flat fee.
Calculate the all-in cost
The result shows your gross amount, the all-in net amount (what really leaves your account), weighted-average cost basis, and effective commission per share.
Use the cost basis everywhere
Drop the weighted-average price into the ROI and Risk calculators — your P/L and position sizing become accurate, not optimistic.
Behind the math
The model lumps every per-share fee into Broker, then layers SST and CDC on top. For a sell trade, subtract total charges from gross to get net proceeds. Round-trip cost is roughly 2 × Total Charges.
Right tool, right moment
Sharpen the edge
Broker fees are usually quoted per share, not per trade — small differences compound on large positions.
CDC charges are flat per investor sub-account per trade, not per share — they hurt small trades disproportionately.
SST is charged on the broker commission, not the trade value — many investors get this wrong.
Day trading? Calculate both legs and you'll often find the round-trip costs exceed your profit target.
