Suppose I am long a futures contract and have paid Rs 2 lakhs as margin for the contract to Zerodha ,30 days before delivery. Suppose I hold the contract until delivery. Will zerodha pay me interest on the daily margin balance for the 30 days after the balance for each day is adjusted for mark to market losses?
Similar question for margins on calendar spreads and options
Genuinely asking! What is to feel entitled on this?
In the US this is a practice followed by some brokers. I dont know how the mechanics works for them as the margins collected by the broker goes to the clearing house.
