Orders under Delivery Product only on Ledger Credit

As you know, Delivery orders are one of the most common types of orders, and they refer to when you buy, take delivery of the securities and hold them in your account for as long as you want.

At present you can place an order under delivery product type based on Cash + Non-cash credit.

  • Cash Credit = Ledger Credit
  • Non-cash Credit = Pledged stocks/collateral, etc.

If you have ever placed an Order under Delivery product type using Non-cash credit, you will be aware of the process that follows, viz:

  • You have to pay the Non-cash credit used by T+2 day
  • Else, you will be charged Penalty till you pay the same,
  • And further non-payment will lead to a square-off of shares on T+7 day.

However, now you will be able to place orders under this product type only based on Cash Credit i.e. Ledger Credit.

Given in the table below is a summary of how this small change will simplify your trading experience with orders under Delivery product type.


However, if you would like to purchase stocks using Non-cash credit, you can place your order using Margin or Intraday Product type. You can also continue using your Non-cash credit for all other segments including F&O, Commodities, Currency, etc.
