RequirementDetails

Pros & Cons

  • Market Fluctuations

    Utilising leverage enhances the potential for both profits and losses. Unexpected market shifts can greatly affect your portfolio's mark-to-market value, raising the potential for loss.

  • Interest Costs

    Borrowed funds incur interest, which adds to the overall cost of trading. Prolonged use of MTF without profitable trades may erode returns.

  • Margin Calls

    If your collateral’s value falls beneath the defined margin, it will trigger a margin call. Maintain your position with additional funds or securities in such an event.

  • Potential for Excessive Leverage

    Exceeding your capacities while trading may lead to significant financial strain. Utilize leverage wisely, ensuring you remain within your financial means.

  • Adherence to Regulatory Standards

    MTF operates in compliance with SEBI regulations. Failure to adhere to regulations or misuse of funds could result in penalties or limitations on your account.

Margin Trading FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

What is a Margin Trading Facility (MTF)?

MTF allows traders to leverage existing investments or cash as collateral to secure funds for stock trading, and provides the opportunity to take leveraged trades of greater value than the deposited margin.

Who is eligible for MTF?

To qualify for MTF, an individual investor must possess a valid Demat and trading account, have completed KYC, and maintain adequate collateral.

What is the operational mechanism of MTF at Anand Rathi?

You can secure financing from Anand Rathi to trade stocks. The amount you borrow is backed by your collateral and is required to be repaid within the designated trading timeframe.

What are the interest rates applicable for Margin Trading Facility?

Interest applies solely to the amount borrowed as leverage for the period of utilisation. Rates may fluctuate based on company policy and prevailing market conditions.

If I am unable to uphold the necessary margin, what are the consequences?

In such a situation, a margin call will be initiated. Additional collateral or funds will be required to uphold your position. Neglecting to comply may lead to the dissolution of your secured assets.

Can I close my positions at any moment?

Yes, you can. MTF provides the flexibility to close your positions or settle the borrowed amount at any time.

Are all stocks qualified for MTF?

Only stocks from the approved list by SEBI qualify for MTF. Anand Rathi offers a comprehensive inventory of qualifying securities.

Is MTF appropriate for those just starting out?

MTF is best suited for seasoned traders who possess a comprehensive understanding of market risks and maintain a well-defined strategy. New investors are advised to exercise caution and obtain expert advice before availing MTF.

What distinguishes MTF from a standard trading account?

A standard trading account necessitates complete payment for stock acquisitions. MTF enables you to enhance your trading capacity by leveraging borrowed funds secured by your collateral to take larger positions beyond currently available capital.

What is the process to apply for MTF with Anand Rathi?

Initiate your trading journey by opening an account, fulfilling the KYC requirements, and executing the MTF agreement. Our expert staff is always available to assist you with the setup and utilisation process.
