Heads up: trade settlements are delayed again—thanks to “settlement holidays” on Sept 5 and Sept 8 because RBI shifted a holiday.
Trading runs live, but pay-ins/outs and DEMAT updates only happen after Sept 8—with everything clearing on Sept 9.
So if you buy or sell between Sept 4-8, don’t expect credits or shares to reflect till next Tuesday.
Useful tip: you're basically trading in Betaland—real money arrives later.
No funds out, no deliveries in—it’s a temporary freeze on liquidity.
Especially trippy for intraday traders, arbitrageurs, and margin use
rs—they’ll feel the delay pinch.
Mutual fund redemptions and subscriptions also pushed—liquid funds wait till Sept 9.
Keep your cash & exposure game tight, because money won’t move fast this window.
Long story short: trade smart, live slow—settlements are in holiday mode.
Don’t let post-trade surprises throw off your strategy.
