only in case transaction is made through recognised stock

stock exchange no stt is to be paid.
If share trading is your business then it shall be allowed
as an expense for the purpose of calculating your profit or
loss from share trading and if u r not a trader but an
investor that no such deduction shall be allowed at the
time of calculating your short or long term capital gain,
as the case may be,
