Are you ready for Peak Margin Phase 3?
From 01-Jun-21, the requirement for Peak Margin enters Phase 3. Keep reading to know everything important about this announcement -
A little background on Peak Margin Requirement: In Dec-20, SEBI introduced a new set of guidelines for Collection & Reporting of Peak Margin – which refers to the highest margin requirement of trades done during the day. The roll-out of Peak Margin requirement was to be done in 4 stages with a gradual increase in the upfront margin required. The 2nd phase which ends on 31-May-21 required an upfront margin of 50%.
Phase 3 of the implementation plan begins from 01-Jun-21 whereby minimum 75% of the total peak margin is required for trades done during the day.
Let’s see how this works out with the help of an Example:
Key Points to Remember:
- From 01-Jun-21, 75% of total peak margin will be collected upfront before placing any trade, across all segments.
- To avoid margin shortage penalty, Funds Payout will be done twice during the day – once before equity market opens & once after equity market closes.
To avoid any interruptions in trading -
- Keep your Angel Broking account well-funded at all times, and/or
