The Indian stock market is undergoing a significant shift with the introduction of the T+0 settlement for you to invest in stocks. The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) has unveiled a list of 25 stocks that will be the pioneers of this exciting new system, allowing for same-day settlement of trades. Let's delve deeper into what T+0 settlement means and explore the list of scrips included in this initial phase.

Understanding T+0 settlement

Traditionally, stock trades in India settled in T+2 format, meaning the exchange and delivery of shares occurred two business days after the trade execution. T+0 settlement revolutionises this process by enabling the trade to be settled on the same day it's executed. This faster settlement cycle offers several potential benefits:

  • Increased Efficiency: T+0 streamlines the settlement process, reducing the time and potential risks associated with holding unsettled trades.
  • Enhanced Liquidity: Faster settlement can improve liquidity in the market by freeing up funds sooner for further investment.
  • Reduced Counterparty Risk: The shorter settlement timeframe minimises the risk of counterparty defaults.
