Can someone please explain the new margin requirement as per the new rule? Especially for F&O
Is the rule applicable from 1st Sept? I don’t see any changes in the margin when I trade-in Options

No changes in margin requirements. There will be changes in MIS (Intraday) margin requirements starting December 1st, from then onwards margins required to trade F&O in MIS, CO, will start increasing gradually in phased manner. How increase will be has been explained here.

Thanks. Is BTST gone now due to the T+2 days?

No. You can continue to do BTST as you were doing before.

Even after 1 Dec?

So what all changes are applicable from 1st Sept? I think only share pleading and intraday profits settlement?
Plz confirm

Yes, everything has been explained in detail here.

There might be some changes but you will be able to do BTST, we will make a post explaining any changes then. For now, you can do BTST.

Thanks. This does not specify shares pledged rule change. Is that not applicable from 1st Sept?

One orthogonal question, currency trading comes under equity or Commodity?

It is applicable, those changes were discussed here.

Currency is different segment, it doesn’t fall under Equity or Commodity. Though you don’t need seperate account for that, you can trade Currency Derivatives via your Equity trading account.
