1. What is Margin Trading Funding (MTF)?

Margin Trading Funding (MTF) is a facility offered to investors and traders to enhance their buying power. It allows you to invest in stocks and securities by paying only a portion of the total investment amount, while the broker funds the remaining balance. Clients can provide margin either in cash or by pledging shares as collateral.

2. What are the benefits of MTF?

MTF offers the following advantages:

• Hold delivery positions for extended periods.
• Avoid auto square-off on T+5 days.
• Utilize idle stocks by pledging them as margin for trading.
• Enhance your buying power by up to four times.
• Invest more with limited available cash, capitalizing on market opportunities.
• Diversify your portfolio by investing in a variety of stocks and securities.

3. How is interest calculated?

Interest on MTF is calculated based on the funded amount and the duration for which the position is held. The calculation begins from the exchange pay-in date for settling the transaction and continues until the funds are received. Interest is charged daily, including non-working days.

Example:
Suppose you purchase stocks worth ₹100,000 under MTF:

• Your contribution: ₹25,000
• Margin funded: ₹75,000
• Daily interest on ₹75,000: ₹36.98

4. Can the MTF facility be used for intraday trades?

No, the Margin Trading Funding (MTF) facility is not available for intraday trading.

5. What happens if you fail to maintain the required margin?

If you fail to maintain the required margin while using the MTF facility, your SEBI-registered broker has the right to close your open positions to restore the minimum margin requirement. This process is referred to as liquidation or forced sale.
