How Selling Pledged Securities Works?

• Submit an unpledge request
• Wait for any approval
• Complete any manual steps before selling

Impact on Your Collateral Margin

• The collateral margin reduces proportionately based on the quantity sold
• Any open positions must continue to meet margin requirements
• If required, you may need to add funds or additional collateral to avoid margin shortfall

Example Scenario

• 300 units of a mutual fund
• Collateral value received: ₹45,000

• Place a CNC sell order for 100 units
• The order executes normally
• Collateral margin reduces based on the value of 100 units
• Remaining 200 units stay pledged and continue to provide margin

Key Points to Remember

• Always use the CNC order type when selling pledged holdings
• Sale proceeds follow the standard T+1 settlement cycle
• Ensure you have sufficient margin for existing F&O positions after selling pledged securities
