1. How to Calculate Buy/Sell P&L in Nepal
Calculating exact Profit and Loss (P&L) in the Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE) isn't as simple as subtracting your buy price from your sell price. Every transaction includes hidden variables: DP charges (Rs. 25), SEBON regulatory fees (0.015%), tiered broker commissions, and highly variable Capital Gains Tax (CGT).
Our NEPSE Trade & Tax Calculator automates this math. By entering your buying and selling parameters, it instantly calculates your precise net receivable amount. This is vital for day traders and swing traders who operate on thin margins and need to ensure their seemingly profitable trades aren't wiped out by statutory fees.
2. WACC, Average Down, and EDIS Fines Explained
WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital) is the foundation of CGT calculation in MeroShare. If you buy the same stock multiple times at different prices, the CDSC calculates your average base price using WACC. Our WACC calculator helps you predict this exact value before you execute EDIS (Electronic Delivery Instruction Slip).
A critical feature for investors holding depreciated assets is the Average Down Calculator. It mathematically calculates exactly how many new shares (kitta) you must buy at the current low market price to bring your overall WACC down to your target break-even point.
Finally, the dreaded EDIS Shortage Fine. If you fail to transfer shares via MeroShare by the T+1 deadline, or if you accidentally execute a short sale, you will face a strict 20% penalty on the transaction amount. Use our EDIS Close-Out Fine calculator to immediately determine your financial liability.
3. Current Broker Commissions & CGT
Broker commissions in Nepal scale down based on volume. Trades up to Rs. 50,000 are charged at 0.40%. This cascades down to 0.37%, 0.34%, 0.30%, and finally 0.27% for institutional-level volumes exceeding Rs. 1 Crore. Capital Gains Tax is similarly tiered: 7.5% if the stock is held for less than 365 days, and 5% if held longer. The calculator natively handles these thresholds to guarantee AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) level accuracy.
4. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How much is the DP charge in NEPSE?
The Depository Participant (DP) charge is a flat Rs. 25 applied per scrip transaction, regardless of the volume of shares bought or sold.
What is the penalty for failing EDIS?
Failing to complete your EDIS transfer by the T+1 settlement window results in a mandatory close-out penalty of exactly 20% of the total transaction value.
Does this calculator support Margin Loan EMI?
Yes. The Share Loan EMI calculator allows you to input your bank's base rate, premium rate, and loan tenure to calculate your exact monthly payments and total interest burden for margin lending.
