SDL selling options

I have purchased SDL 745AP2030, which I want to sell, but the LTP , and there is zero liquidity, how can I sell it out, is there any other option, I am extremally in need of it.

This is the 3rd such post in recent times.
I wonder what’s happening… :thinking:

Why is everyone buying SDLs without considering there is hardly any liquidity on secondary markets! :sweat:

Anyway, checkout this topic-thread where this scenario was recently discussed.

To get rid of illiquid bonds in a hurry on the secondary markets (NSE/BSE)
the strategy is to basically offer all the bonds one is holding
and sell-off whatever quantity (even part of one’s entire holdings) one can
at progressively lower rates (even lower circuit limits),
as circuit-limits reduce each day after a trade occurs at a lower price.

Are these securities part of cash component for pledging ?

Nope. AFAIK, none of the SDLs are.

…and yet people buy them planning to pledge them for margin. :person_shrugging:

Then I am out. :grin:
I thought of offering him a fair deal if it was allowed to be pledged. Deal off market and then place order accordingly in secondary market. :grimacing::grimacing:

Edit: You have already proposed the same. :grimacing:

I have taken loan abd i am stuck in it, please help me find a better way to exit this

Hello, please help me exit this SDL, i have taken this SDL with loan amount, which is really difficult

Am not sure what else to say but to re-iterate what i mentioned in this topic-thread.

  • to place limit-orders of the entire lot you wish to sell on NSE / BSE
  • hope that someone sees it and places a counter-offer on the exchange,
  • and then you can keep reducing your limit order to match whatever one is willing to pay and buy the SDL
  • and keep selling-off lots over a few days as lower-circuit-limit reduces and one can bid at further lower prices.

Hopefully, you have realised why taking loans to trade/invest is a bad idea.

Good Luck :+1:
