6. Shortages in obligations arising out of internal netting of trades.
BSE has a window wherein the internal short deliveries can get auctioned as
per the normal auction process. Internal short deliveries are not covered by the auction conducted on the NSE. It is due to this limitation on the NSE we follow the procedure as mentioned below:
1. The cilient may not receive shares on T+2 in case there is an internal shortage situation with PRLSS i.e. the buyer and seller are both PRLSS clients and the seller defaults in delivery due to which the buyer may not receive the shares.
ii.In case of an internal shortage firstly the defaulting seller would be debited with a value as on the previous day of the pay-in-day plus 30% for the default till such time the auction process is completed.
iii. In case there is an internal shortage in BSE the exchange conducts an auction through which the shares would be purchased and delivered to the buyer. The seller would be debited at the rate at which the exchange would have purchased these shares. Additionally brokerage, statutory costs and other incidental charges including penalty for non-delivery may be debited to the client. In case the exchange is unable to purchase these shares, the exchange will inform PRLSS of a close out rate, at which the buyer would be allowed credit and the seller would be debited for the same amount.
iv. If securities cannot be purchased from market due to any reason iv. If securities cannot be purchased from market due to any reason whatsoever on T+3 day they can be covered from the market on any subsequent trading days. In case any reason whatsoever (any error or omission) any delay in covering of securities leads to higher losses, stock broker will not be liable for the same. Where the delivery is matched partially or fully at the Exchange Clearing, the delivery and debits/credits shall be as per Exchange Debits and Credits.
v. In cases of securities having corporate actions all cases of short delivery of cum transactions which cannot be auctioned on cum basis or where the cum basis auction payout is after the book closure / record date, would be compulsory closed out at higher of 10% above the official closing price on the auction day or the highest traded price from first trading day of the settlement till the auction day.
7. Conditions under which a client may not be allowed to take further position or the broker may close the existing position of a client.
We have margin based RMS System. Client may take exposure up to the amount of margin available with us. Client may not be allowed to take position in case of non-availability/ shortage of margin as per our RMS policy of the company. The existing position of the client is also liable to square off/ close out without giving notice due to shortage of margin / non making of payment for their pay-in obligation / outstanding debts.
