Captain Virat Kohli waged a lone battle with 72, while the duo of James Anderson and Jack Leach destroyed India.
India enjoy a slight, if not distinct, advantage over the hosts ahead of the five-match series.
Broad possesses the potential to not only only overtake Anderson but also end up as the fast bowler with the highest number of Test wickets.
A throw from Black Caps fielder Martin Guptill deflected off Stokes' bat while he was diving to reach his crease to complete the second run and the ball ran off to the boundary in the dying stages of the England run chase.
In 2014, Kohli had struggled to get going and managed only 134 runs in five Tests, one of his worst Test performances.
The senior speedster also revealed that team management has already conveyed that rotation of seamers is on cards.
Englishman Anderson replaced Australian legend McGrath as the most prolific pace bowler in Test cricket by picking up his 564th wicket at the Oval.
In addition to the fine, one demerit point has been added to the disciplinary record of the fast bowler, for whom it was the first offence since the introduction of the revised ICC Code of Conduct.
India needed 84 more runs to go one up in the five-match series, with Kohli unbeaten on 43 at the end of day three of an absorbing opening Test at Edgbaston.
Anderson, playing in his 156th match, became the first seamer to capture 600 wickets in the game's longest format.
