T+0 Settlement: Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) has selected 25 stocks eligible for T+0 settlement from Thursday i.e. tomorrow. The move comes after capital markets regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) earlier this month introduced the framework for the beta version of the T+0 trade settlement cycle on an optional basis.
Shares eligible for the T+0 settlement cycle include Ambuja Cement, Ashok Leyland, Bajaj Auto, Bank of Baroda and BPCL.
Initially this option will be available for a specific set of 25 stocks and a limited number of brokers. The objective of this initiative is to provide an additional settlement cycle option to the existing T+1 in the equity cash market.
India's transition from T+2 to T+1 was completed in March 2023 in three phases. Shorter settlement cycles require changes to the basic structure of trading operations for brokers. This requires some degree of approval for foreign institutional investors. Now the market trend is moving towards a same day settlement cycle within a year of the change in T+1.
The list of shares eligible for this T+0 settlement cycle is given below.
