What is a Buy Today Sell Tomorrow (BTST) order?
BTST (Buy Today Sell Tomorrow) is an order product type wherein you can place a buy order and sell it on the settlement day. It is a leveraged product offered by Geojit for clients to carry forward a cash/delivery purchase by paying only a margin.
If your BTST position is not squared-off on T+1, the securities will be converted to a cash/delivery position and treated as per the CUSPA guidelines.
On settlement day, you are advised to assess the risks associated with selling of shares to avoid any shortfall in securities pay-in, which may lead to short delivery auction.
Interest is charged on open BTST positions.
Day | Interest* |
