Yes, you can sell your pledged shares during market hours on FYERS without unpledging them first. Although pledge and unpledge requests are processed only at the end of the day (EOD), your pledged holdings remain fully sellable throughout the trading session.

Need help unpledging? Follow this step-by-step guide.
| Scenario | Solution |
|---|---|
| You submitted an unpledge request and also sold the same shares | No action is required because both actions are processed together at EOD. |
| You placed a pledge request, but sold the shares before EOD | The pledge request is automatically cancelled for the quantity sold. |
| You want to sell pledged shares without waiting for unpledged shares | You can sell pledged shares directly during market hours; we adjust the margin and settlement at EOD. |
| You sold both free and pledged shares and want to know which was sold first | We sell free shares first, then pledged shares, and then T1 holdings according to the priority order. |
