A planning-level estimate using the published NEPSE/SEBON equity slabs. Brokerage commission is applied on each buy and sell, SEBON fee is 0.015% of the amount, and the DP charge is Rs 25 per transaction. Capital gains tax shown is the individual rate for FY 2083/84 (10% if held under 365 days, 7.5% otherwise) and applies only when there is a net gain; companies/institutions are taxed at 10%. Rates are set by circular and the Finance Act — confirm the current figures with your broker before trading.
From price difference to take-home profit
Every NEPSE trade carries brokerage, a SEBON regulatory fee and a DP charge on both sides — and a capital gains tax on any net gain. This tool layers all of them on top of your price difference.
Buy cost
Units × buy price, plus brokerage on that slab, the 0.015% SEBON fee and a Rs 25 DP charge — your true cost basis.
Sell proceeds
Units × sell price, minus brokerage, the SEBON fee and the DP charge — what actually lands in your account.
Tax & net profit
Gross profit is proceeds minus cost; capital gains tax (7.5% under a year, else 5%) applies only to a gain, leaving net profit.
Share costs & tax, answered
How is NEPSE share brokerage commission calculated?+
Brokerage is charged as a percentage of the transaction amount, on a sliding scale: 0.36% up to Rs 50,000; 0.33% from Rs 50,000 to 500,000; 0.31% from Rs 500,000 to 2,000,000; 0.27% from Rs 2,000,000 to 10,000,000; and 0.24% above Rs 10,000,000. The same slab is applied separately to the buy and the sell side.
What is the SEBON fee and DP charge on a share trade?+
SEBON (Securities Board of Nepal) levies a regulatory fee of 0.015% of the transaction amount on both buying and selling. The depository participant (DP) charges a flat Rs 25 per transaction. Both are added to your buy cost and deducted from your sell proceeds in this calculator.
How much capital gains tax do I pay on shares in Nepal?+
For individual (natural-person) investors the capital gains tax is 7.5% if the shares are held for less than 365 days, and 5% if held for 365 days or more. CGT is charged only on a net gain — there is no tax when you sell at a loss. Institutional investors are taxed at a different rate.
What is the breakeven sell price?+
The breakeven sell price is the per-share price at which your net sell proceeds exactly cover your total buy cost, including brokerage, the SEBON fee and the DP charge on both sides. Selling above this price produces a gross profit; selling below it is a loss.
Does this calculator show the exact amount I will receive?+
It gives a close planning estimate using the published NEPSE/SEBON slabs. Your actual broker statement may differ slightly because of rounding rules, any applicable house adjustments and changes made by circular. Always confirm the current rates with your broker and SEBON before trading.
Sources & data note
Based on the published NEPSE broker-commission slabs (0.36% / 0.33% / 0.31% / 0.27% / 0.24% by transaction size), the SEBON regulatory fee of 0.015%, a Rs 25 DP charge per transaction, and the individual capital-gains-tax rates of 7.5% (held under 365 days) and 5% (365 days or more). These rates are set by circular and can change — this is a planning estimate, not tax or investment advice; verify the current figures with your broker, NEPSE, SEBON and the IRD.
