Question

Himanshu invested ₹ 1,55,91,490 in the shares of FV ₹ 100 when MV is ₹ 1,550. Also, the rate of brokerage is 0.5% and GST is 18%. Then find how many shares were buy. Also find the amount of brokerage paid and GST paid for the trading.

Sum

Solution

Money invested = ₹ 1,55,91,490

Brokerage = 0.5%

GST = 18%

∴ Brokerage per share = `1550 xx 0.5/100`

= 7.75

So, GST per share = 18% of 7.75

= 1.395

Cost of 1 share = MV + Brokerage + GST

= 1550 + 7.75 + 1.395

= ₹ 1559.145

Number of shares = `15591490/1559.145` 

= 10000

Total brokerage = Brokerage per share × Number of shares

= 7.75 × 10000

= ₹ 77500

Total GST = 10000 × 1.395

= ₹ 13950

As a result, Himanshu purchased 10,000 shares, paying ₹ 77500 in brokerage and ₹ 13950 in GST.
