Why is my order getting rejected on FYERS?

Why is my order getting rejected on FYERS?

When placing trades on FYERS, you might see order rejection messages in the order window. These appear when the system blocks your order due to checks related to margins, product restrictions, exchange rules, timing, price bands, liquidity, or risk limits.

To help you quickly identify and resolve issues, this article lists the actual rejection messages you may encounter, along with their meanings and suggested actions.

Tip: Before retrying, verify these two first—Product type (Intraday/Delivery/MTF, etc.) and Available margin/funds. Most rejections are caused by one of these.
