Best practices to ensure a smooth special trading session:
- If you use CDSL T-PIN, ensure that you pre-authorise your holdings before the session opens on Saturday. Alternatively, you can enable DDPI to avoid using CDSL T-PIN. To learn how to enable DDPI, click here.
- Ensure sufficient funds are transferred to your trading account before the special session, as high UPI transaction volumes are expected, which could potentially lead to delays in fund transfer.
