As someone who’s thoroughly examined Angel One, I can say that inactivity charges were not specifically highlighted among their fee structures. What stands out is that Angel One applies certain ongoing costs, such as the Annual Maintenance Charge (AMC) for demat accounts—after the first year, this is typically ₹60 per quarter (for non-BSDA accounts), with other options depending on account type and holding size. These are standard demat account maintenance fees in India and are not triggered specifically by inactivity, but rather accrue as a general account cost. From my perspective, the absence of explicit “inactivity fees” provides some peace of mind, but it’s always important to review their latest fee disclosures before opening or leaving an account dormant. Any trader should keep in mind that policies can change, and a lack of trading activity won’t exempt anyone from these AMCs, so even if I’m not actively trading, maintenance fees may still apply. This is especially significant for long-term holders or those considering stepping back temporarily—the onus really is on the investor to stay updated with the broker’s most recent terms. I always recommend reaching out directly to Angel One’s support to confirm the current fee structure, as demat-related charges are a core part of cost considerations, especially in the Indian brokerage space.
