Starting from 1st December 2020, a SEBI regulation regarding peak margins has changed the way sell amounts get credited to your account.

Selling a share from your Demat holdings:

  • 80% of the sell amount is available for trading on the same day
  • The remaining 20% will be available for trading from T+1 day onwards
  • 100% of the sell amount will be available for withdrawal from T+1 day evening onwards

Selling a share from your T1 holdings:

  • No Funds from the sell transaction will be available for trading on the same day
  • 100% of the total sell amount will be available for trading only from T + 1 day onwards
  • 100% of the total sell amount will be available for withdrawal from T + 1 day evening onwards

Here’s an example:
