How Often Is Interest Charged on MTF Positions?

Interest on Margin Trading Facility (MTF) positions is charged daily but is deducted once every 7 days as a consolidated entry. This means your daily usage is recorded, and the total interest is reflected in your ledger weekly.

How MTF Interest Works

  • Daily Charging:
    Interest is calculated every day based on your open MTF positions and the applicable rate. To check the slab-wise MTF interest rates, refer to this article.
  • Weekly Deduction:
    The total interest accrued over a 7-day period is deducted from your account in one consolidated debit.
  • Tracking:
     The combined interest charged for the last 7 days is added to the ledger weekly once.
Tip: Plan your trades and exit timing to stay ahead of interest cycles and keep funding costs low.
