On 25 February 2022, the Indian stock market<\/a> transitioned to the shorter and faster T+1 or ‘Trade plus 1’ settlement<\/a> cycle. In the first phase, the new settlement cycle was applied to 100 equities on the NSE<\/a> with the lowest market capitalization. This means that people who deal in shares that fall under the T+1 settlement cycle will receive their money or shares within 24 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trades on Indian stock exchanges<\/a> are currently resolved in two working days (T+2). For example, if you purchase shares on Wednesday, they will be deposited to your Demat account<\/a> the following day, Thursday. They had been settling on Friday up to this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the final Friday of each month, 500 stocks will be introduced under the new settlement mechanism. Currently, deals on Indian stock exchanges are settled within 2 days after their occurrence, a process called T+2 settlement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A switch to the T+1 method would result in settlements taking place the next day, making the market more efficient by shortening the period between striking a deal and its consummation. The T+2 settlement mechanism is still used by the majority of global markets. Despite criticism from certain international investors, the new rules have been implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“T+1 should be a good move because it shortens the settlement cycle and reduces margin<\/a> requirements for clients with margin blocked for only one day, thereby increasing retail participation and investments in equity<\/a> markets,” said Anupam Agal, head operations and legal at Motilal Oswal Financial Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The T+1 settlement method will reduce the risk of pay-in\/pay-out defaults by one day, minimise margin requirements, and provide investors with additional liquidity through the availability of cash and assets,” he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The settlement cycle was reduced from T+3 rolling settlement to T+2 in April 2003 by the regulator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
