Dear Sir/Madam,
1. Settlement of your funds & securities has to be done by your Stock Broker within 24 hours of the payout unless otherwise agreed. If you have given a running account authorisation, your broker has to settle your account once in a month or quarter depending upon your preference after retaining the following permissible amounts:
— In respect of derivative market transactions, apart from margin liability as on the date of settlement, broker may retain additional margins (maximum up to 125% of margin requirement on the day of settlement) to take care of any margin obligation arising in the next 5 days.
— Broker may retain entire pay-in obligation of funds & securities due from clients as on date of settlement.
— Broker may retain funds/securities/margin to the extent of value of transactions executed on the day of such settlement in the cash market only.
— Broker may retain an amount up to Rs. 10,000/- (net amount across segment and across exchanges), after taking your written consent.
2. It is your right to get your account settled monthly or quarterly basis as per your preference.
3. Please review the margin statements and statement of accounts carefully on receipt. If they are not received, demand the same from your Broker.
4. You are advised not to give instruction to your broker not to settle your account on a monthly or quarterly basis as this is a contravention to SEBI requirement for mandatory settlement of accounts on monthly or quarterly basis.
5. Please bring any instances of non-settlement of your accounts on a monthly or quarterly basis as per your preference to the notice of NSE at
[email protected]. Please quote the name of your Broker, your PAN number and period for which your account is not settled in the email.
Warm Regards,
Inspection Department,
