Margin Trading Facility (MTF) allows you to buy eligible stocks by paying a portion of the required value upfront, while FYERS funds the remaining amount.
This lets you take delivery of eligible shares with leverage and carry the position beyond the trading day.
MTF is available only for eligible stocks and for Buy orders. The applicable leverage and required margin are displayed in the order window and can vary by stock.
