The BSE has named 25 equities that will be eligible for the T+0 settlement cycle, which begins Thursday. This decision comes after the capital markets regulator introduced a framework for the beta version of the T+0 trade settlement cycle on an optional basis earlier this month.
Stocks eligible for the T+0 settlement cycle include Ambuja Cements, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Bank of Baroda, and BPCL.
Initially, this option will be available to a select group of 25 scrips and a limited number of brokers. This effort attempts to supplement the existing T+1 settlement cycle in the equities cash market.
In March 2023, India completed its three-phase transition to 'T+1' from 'T+2'. Brokers' trading operations must adjust to accommodate a shorter settlement period. Foreign institutional investors must also obtain specific approvals. Within a year of switching to 'T+1', the market is moving toward a same-day settlement cycle for deals.
