a. The number of shares purchased can be calculated as:
Number of Shares = (Investment Amount / Face Value)
= 25,059/ 10 = 2,505.9 = 2,506 (to the nearest whole number)
b. The amount of brokerage paid can be calculated as:
Brokerage = (Investment Amount x Brokerage Rate)
= 2,50,590 x 0.002 = Rs. 501.18
c. The GST paid for the trading can be calculated as:
GST = (Brokerage Amount x GST Rate)
= 501.18 x 0.18 = Rs. 90.22
