Products with different funding mechanics
| Product | Economic structure |
|---|---|
| Cash delivery | Fully paid shares and demat settlementSource 1Source 2Source 4 |

| StockPlus | Existing unencumbered shares pledged for trading collateralSource 1Source 2Source 4 |
INR currency derivatives remain hedging products. RBI’s 10 October 2026 circular reduced the aggregate exchange documentation threshold to USD 5 million; that threshold is not permission for unhedged speculation.[13]

MTF interest clock
| Question | Published answer |
|---|---|
| Rate illustrated by current help | 0.05% per day on the broker-funded amountSource 3 |
| Own contribution | Excluded from the financed principalSource 3 |
| Weekends and holidays | Included while financing remains outstandingSource 3 |
| Same-day opening and closure | No MTF interest in the cited help exampleSource 3 |
| Posting | Daily; inspect the MTF ledger in the back officeSource 3 |
At the documented illustrative rate, ₹40,000 funded costs ₹20 for one day or ₹60 across three charged days. The calculation excludes brokerage, tax and pledge charges; an account-specific agreed rate can differ.[3][2]

Current MTF limits and liquidation
| Control | Policy |
|---|---|
| Client funding cap | ₹2.5 croreSource 2 |
| Scrip cap | ₹1 crore aggregate exposure under the stated policySource 2 |
| Shortfall window | Communicated deadline of one to five trading days; emergency powers remainSource 2 |
| Liquidation sequence | LIFO, then more-liquid holdings as describedSource 2 |
| Corporate actions | New exposure blocked; existing position can require closure by 12:00 on the prior business daySource 2 |
| Cash conversion | CNC conversion requires full funds and permitted workflowSource 2 |
The current policy also states that same-day opposite MTF/CNC trades do not automatically convert the existing product: MTF-sell/CNC-buy remains MTF, while CNC-sell/MTF-buy remains CNC. An older sell-and-rebuy workaround should not be treated as current policy.[2]
