What is the best option for 50% cash margin required?

I read somewhere there are 2 options - liquid funds and liquid ETF - is there any other option?

Here is list of securities which are considered as cash equivalent.

@curiousvi

I also read that liquid funds give more return compared to liquid ETF - please correct me if am wrong.

Here’s a comparison between Liquid Funds and ETF’s: Liquid funds vs. Liquid ETF/Overnight Funds

@curiousvi

And if I have option selling position overnight - does the margin requirement changes frequently during day?

Margin requirement depends on price and volatility of the security. Also, if your Option position is in loss, your margin requirement will increase as losses are marked to market and deducted actively from your available margin.

In case you don’t have sufficient margins, you’ll have to add more funds to ensure your position isn’t squared-off.

Unfortunately margin sheet does not come before 12 at night so one can not transfer more funds to avoid margin penalty so what is the solution?

@siva-reddy can you.
