Margin Plus at 5Paisa

What is MarginPlus?

Have you ever missed an investment opportunity because you did not have enough funds to trade? MarginPlus is the solution you've been waiting for! 

According to the new regulations by SEBI, effective 1st August, the cash collateral ratio for an order must be at least 50:50 for all your trades. This means that at least 50% of the order’s value must be paid using cash, and the remaining can be in the form of non-cash collateral (pledged securities). 

To help our investors, 5Paisa is delighted to introduce our latest product MarginPlus to all its users! MarginPlus is the most preferred feature that will help every trader/investor to meet their cash margin requirements to purchase additional stocks at a nominal interest rate. With MarginPlus, you can trade effortlessly even with no cash in your trading account, using only your available stock holdings!

MarginPlus will be available to users starting from 1st August 2022.

MarginPlus

Intraday (All Segments)
If you are placing an Intraday order of 100 Qty of Cipla shares at Rs. 900/- (transaction value 100*900=90,000), the margin requirement will be 20% i.e. Rs. 18,000/-
 
As per the new rule, you will need to maintain at least Rs. 9,000/- as a Cash component to place this order, while the remaining 9,000/- can be in the form of collateral.

However, if you do not have any cash in your trading account, but you have a Collateral margin of Rs.18,000 or more, 5paisa will allow you to place the order and help you fulfil your Rs. 9,000/- cash requirement for free (at a 0% interest rate).

Further, when the entire amount has to be paid in cash on settlement i.e. T+2, 5paisa will fund that amount if you set up a pledge for funding.
 
So, your margin funding utilization here will be 100*Rs.900= Rs.90,000 as the full amount will need to be paid in cash by 5paisa at settlement. Hence your interest would be 90,000*0.06% = Rs. 54 per day, T+2 onwards.
If you are placing a delivery order of 100 Qty of Cipla shares at Rs. 900/- (Order value - 90,000), Then as a non-MarginPlus customer, you will need to maintain the entire order value of Rs. 90,000/- in Cash and cash equivalent.
