In this article we\u2019ll try to answer some of the common questions you may have regarding Margin Against Shares also known as Pledge Holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Pledge Holdings?<\/b><\/p>\n

Pledge holdings (Margin against shares) is basically a value added service. It allows you to get exposure against Shares, Mutual Funds, Non-Convertable Debentures (NCDs), Sovereign Gold Bond (SGBs), Government Bonds available in your<\/span> demat account<\/span><\/a> by keeping them as collateral (pledge). The collateral value of these holdings is calculated after applying a hair-cut. The key highlight of Pledge Holdings is that <\/span>you may trade with Zero Cash Balance in the Equity Derivatives and Currency derivatives segments (Both Intraday and Positional Trades) and also in the Cash Market segment (Intraday trades)<\/b>. You do not have to have cash in your Trading Account to meet the margin requirements. The pledged holdings (collateral) can be used for getting extra Margins.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cash equivalent collateral is also considered as a cash component to meet the margin requirement. Let’s understand with an example.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Example: Say you have 1) pledged shares worth \u20b92,00,000 (value after haircut) 2) pledged cash equivalent collateral of amount \u20b91,00,000 (value after haircut) and 3) Pledged Mutual Fund value of \u20b950,000 (value after haircut). You wish to buy 1 Lot of NIFTY & the margin required to initiate the position with the Overnight\/NRML Product type is \u20b91,50,000. Let\u2019s see the scenarios below to know how the margin requirement is fulfilling.<\/span><\/p>\n

Without opting Pledge Holding service:
\n<\/b>You will need to maintain \u20b91,50,000 cash in your account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With opting Pledge Holding service:
\n<\/b>Let’s assume you have zero balance. Now, 50% of the margin requirement is considered from non cash collateral and 50% is from cash or cash equivalent collateral.<\/span><\/p>\n

Margin requirement = 50% of 1,50,000 from 2,50,000 (2 lac+50K) + 50% of 1,50,000 from 1,00,000
\n<\/span>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0= 75,000 + 75,000 = 1,50,000<\/span><\/p>\n

Since there is no shortfall, you are not required to pay the DPC (delayed payment charge).<\/span><\/p>\n

Formula for calculating collateral value after Hair-cut:<\/b><\/p>\n

(Quantity of the stock pledged x Last trading price) x (100% \u2013 Haircut% for the stock). For e.g. if you had pledged 1000 quantities of SBI scrip trading @ \u20b9400 which has a haircut of 20% then you shall be eligible for the collateral value of \u20b93,20,000 i.e. [(1000*400) x (100% – 20%)].\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Please refer to<\/span> this link<\/span><\/a> to check the hair-cut percentage for various scrips.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before explaining the process to get margin against your shares let us discuss a few of the features of Pledge Holding<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Segments & product types available for Pledge Holding<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
    Segment<\/b><\/td>\nProduct type<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Cash<\/span><\/td>\nIntraday (MIS), CO & BO<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    F&O<\/span><\/td>\nIntraday (MIS), Overnight (NRML)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Currency Derivatives<\/span><\/td>\nIntraday (MIS), Overnight (NRML)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

    Pledge Holding will not be available for buying securities in Delivery (CNC) and for buying Options contracts. Also, Pledge Holding feature will not be available for trading in the commodity segment.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. List of scrips available for pledging under Pledge Holding feature: <\/b>There are\u00a0 almost 1000+ approved securities (Stocks & ETFs) which are available for pledging. Please refer to<\/span> this link<\/span><\/a> to check the hair-cut percentage for various scrips. This list is decided as per TradeSmart’s internal risk policies. It will be reviewed periodically and updated accordingly.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. List of scrips<\/strong><\/span><\/a> falling under cash equivalent collateral.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Charges: <\/b>There shall be charges of \u20b915 for pledging and \u20b915 for unpledging + GST per scrip for the day irrespective of the quantity. So if you have pledged 100 quantity of Reliance and 200 quantity of ACC you will be charged \u20b930 (15*2) exclusive of the GST. The pledge charges will be debited from your ledger the day you place the pledge request. Similarly, the charges will be applicable for unpledging.<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Delayed payment charges (DPC):\u00a0 <\/b>For F&O and currency trading, the Exchanges accepts 50% margin in cash or cash equivalent collaterals and 50% in shares. The collateral received from you will be given to the exchange against your margin requirements. In case the cash or cash equivalent collaterals are less than 50%, delayed payment charge @ 0.05% per day will be levied on the amount funded by us.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      For Cash the delayed payment charge @ 0.05% per day will be levied on the cash shortfall portion on the total ledger debit. If there is no ledger debit at the end of the day, these charges will not be levied. The Interest will have to be paid on outstanding ledger debits. A rebate shall be given to traders up to (50% of exchange margins) or collateral value after haircut, whichever is lower. Let\u2019s understand the DPC using below examples:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Case 1:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Cash Balance = 0
      \n<\/span>Non cash Collateral Value after haircut = \u20b95 lacs
      \n<\/span>Cash equivalent collateral value after haircut = \u20b940 K
      \n<\/span>Margin used = \u20b91 lac<\/span><\/p>\n

      DPC shall be charged on = \u20b910,000 i.e. (50% of 1 lac is considered from non cash collateral + 50% of 1 lac is considered from cash and cash equivalent collateral)<\/span><\/p>\n

      Case 2:<\/span><\/p>\n

      Cash Balance = \u20b95000
      \n<\/span>Non cash Collateral Value after haircut = \u20b95 lacs
      \n<\/span>Cash equivalent collateral value after haircut = 40 K
      \n<\/span>Margin used = \u20b91 lac<\/span><\/p>\n

      DPC shall be charged on = \u20b95,000 i.e. (50% of 1 lac is considered from non cash collateral + 50% of 1 lac is considered from cash balance and cash equivalent collateral)<\/span><\/p>\n

      No fresh trades allowed if ledger is in debit beyond T+5 days:<\/b> Clients who are having a ledger debit due to MTM loss, brokerage, AMC or any other charges for T+5 days, will not be able to create new positions in any of the segments beyond T+5 days. To understand this better let us take a look at the below example.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Ex: Let\u2019s assume you have traded on Monday,1st June (T day) using Margin Against Shares. At the end of the day, the account is in debit (due to MTM loss etc.). In this case you are still able to use MAS benefit for further intraday trading and take position in derivatives (FO\/CDS) till next Monday i.e 8th June (5th day excluding trading holidays). If the debit continues beyond Monday then you will not be allowed to place any new trades from Tuesday 9th June (6th day) onwards. However, you can square off the existing positions and sell your holdings. Your account will be enabled for fresh positions\/trades the day after the ledger comes into credit.<\/span><\/p>\n

      We would suggest keeping your ledger in credit balance to be able to make the most use of your pledged shares.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Note:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Brokerage Plans: <\/b>MAS is available for 0.007% (Value\u00a0 Plan) and \u20b915 (Power\u00a0 Plan) brokerage plans only.<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. Trading Platform: <\/b>The pledged benefits are available on all our trading platforms such as Desktop based, Mobile and Web based platforms.<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. Corporate Action: <\/b>In case of any corporate action for pledged stocks the benefits of corporate action will be transferred to the demat account it is in. Hence, in case<\/span><\/li>\n
      4. Dividends<\/b>: In accordance with the provisions of Section 195 of the Income Tax Act, 1961, the dividends will be taxable. Since the shares do not move out of the demat account, the client can get the dividend directly in their primary bank account.<\/li>\n
      5. Rights Issue<\/b>: The rights entitlement benefit goes to the owner of the demat account where the stocks are held on the record date. In case you\u2019d like to apply for the rights issue, you can do so without unpledging the shares. Because the shares are in your demat account only and are just marked as pledged (lien).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
