Why Do I Receive SMS and Email Notifications from NSE, BSE, or MCX When I Trade?
At FYERS, whenever you place and execute a trade, the respective exchange such as NSE, BSE, or MCX sends you a confirmation through SMS and email. These alerts are part of SEBI’s investor protection framework and are meant to confirm that trades are executed as per your instructions.
Purpose of Exchange Trade Notifications
- Confirm trade execution: Provides real-time confirmation of your trade details.
- Prevent unauthorised activity: Alerts you immediately in case of any trade executed without your consent.
- Enable verification: Allows you to cross-check your FYERS contract note with official exchange data for transparency.
Regulatory Basis for Alerts
These trade notifications are issued under SEBI circular SEBI/HO/MIRSD/DOP/P/CIR/2021/569 and subsequent exchange regulations. They are mandatory for all brokers and exchanges to ensure investor awareness and prevent unauthorised trading activity.
- Every trade executed through FYERS is reported to the respective exchange.
- Exchanges independently verify and confirm trades directly to the client via SMS and email.
- This ensures that your trading activity is fully traceable and compliant with SEBI standards.
What Do These Alerts Contain?
- Exchange name (NSE, BSE, MCX)
- Client ID or UCC
- Buy or Sell value
- Instrument and trade type
- Trade time and order reference number
Below are examples of the types of regulatory alerts you may receive from exchanges after placing a trade through FYERS.
| Alert Type | Sample Message |

Always compare your FYERS contract note with exchange alerts to confirm that all trades match correctly.

What If...
| Scenario | Recommended Action |
|---|
| I did not place a trade but received an alert | Contact our support immediately so we can verify your account activity and take necessary action. |
| The trade value in the SMS does not match my FYERS report | Allow for a short delay between broker and exchange reports. Check your FYERS contract note for the final trade confirmation. |
