Stamp Duty and Other Tax in 'get_trade_history' API

[ekveer]

Hi @Hardik,

@Hardik

get_trade_history API is primarily used to fetch Trade History, and hence there might be missing fields which are present in Contract Note and not in API response. We are not planning to add ‘other tax’ in Trade History API as of now.

It makes sense that get_trade_history api is primarily for trade history however when you have included all charges like (‘sebiTax’, ‘stt’, ‘brokerageCharges’, ‘serviceTax’, ‘exchangeTransactionCharges’, ‘stampDuty’), it is natural that one would expect any new tax that comes up will be added to the api. Not sure if providing partial information will be of any use.

Per below thread

Please add "DP Charges" to Dhan "get_trade_history" API

It would be great if you can add DP Charges as charged by DHAN to get_trade_history api. This way, we can get all expenses related to a trade in 1 single shot. We can add this cost while doing our calculation but getting the data from source will shield our code from any future changes to DP Charge or GST. Hope this makes sense.

you have indicated that DP Charges are not part of Demat related charges, it made sense but not Other Tax.

Is there any other API which provides trade level information for every charge?

@Hardik

For data where the stamp duty is incorrect, it will be helpful if you can drop in more details about this at api@dhan.co so that we can debug this at our end.

I have sent an email with details to api@dhan.co regarding stamp duty values. Hope the issue gets fixed soon.

Thanks.
