T+1 settlement cycle kickstarts in the Indian stock market
With guidance of SEBI and with support from all Market Infrastructure Intermediaries and all other stakeholders, all trades executed in any securities in the equity segment from today will now be settled as per T+1 settlement cycle.
The transition to T+1 settlement started in a phased manner from February 2022 and today marks the historic day when all securities move to this settlement cycle. This will bring major capital efficiencies for investors and enhance risk mitigation for India's capital market ecosystem.
With the T+1 Settlement cycle, India scores a massive edge over the world’s other capital markets. The reduction in settlement days will ensure better liquidity for investors. The shorter settlement cycle will enhance trade and the participation of investors. BSE will continue to contribute to the crucial growth of the Indian financial ecosystem through the faster settlement period.
