Deep dive - the full story
Zerodha has confirmed a full reversal of brokerage charges for transactions conducted through its mobile application and web platform during the special Muhurat trading session scheduled for November 8, 2026. The fee waiver encompasses intraday trades, futures and options contracts, commodity segment trades, and margin trading facility positions. Festive trading sessions carry symbolic and high-volume participation among retail investors who mark the beginning of the Hindu accounting year (Samvat) by executing auspicious trades.
Historically, brokerages introduce fee incentives to encourage market participation during this limited-hour trading window, altering standard transaction cost structures for retail clients. Traders and investors should verify their application settings and ensure adequate margin availability ahead of the November 8, 2026, session to capitalize on the fee waiver. Clients must monitor payout timelines and systematic investment plan execution rules specific to the festive holiday schedule.
Reviewing account statements post-trade confirms that the brokerage reversal has been applied correctly to eligible transactions.
