  • FYERS Trader (Desktop Web)

Key Conditions for Conversion

ConditionRequirement
Conversion WindowBetween 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM on trading days
💼 Sufficient MarginYour account must have enough funds to support the CNC position
📦 Settlement TimeOnce converted, the shares will appear under CNC holdings next working day

Important Points to Remember

  • If margin is insufficient, the conversion will be rejected.
  • Requests are subject to validation by FYERS’ Risk team and processed on the next working day.
  • If you sell the MTF stock before the conversion request is executed, it will be cancelled automatically.
  • You will receive WhatsApp and email alerts confirming success or failure.

Common Pitfalls to Avoid

  • Don’t place requests near market close without checking margin — they may not get processed.
  • Don’t expect immediate conversion — holdings update on T+1 basis.
  • Don’t use CNC funds elsewhere until conversion is reflected — margin mismatch may occur.
Tip: Always check your margin balance before placing a conversion request. Use the MTF Calculator for estimates.
