Because of this brokers were able to provide higher leverages in intraday (MIS), cover order (CO) and bracket order (BO). Customers were able to trade with lower margins from the prescribed limit of VAR (Value-At-Risk) + ELM (Extreme Loss Margin) for equities and SPAN + Exposure for F&amp;O. Leverages lead to risk at the broker&#8217;s end as there could be cases where the customers might not be able to provide the margins at the end of the day. If customer doesn\u2019t provide the margin it leads to a shortfall. In order to solve this problem, SEBI has now mandated all brokers to report the margins multiple times during the day as compared to just once at the end of the day.<\/p>\n<p>You can read more details on the SEBI\u2019s Peak margin norms in the article published by us &#8211;<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/sebi-peak-margin-norms\">Everything you need to know about SEBI\u2019s Peak Margin norms<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As per SEBI\u2019s Peak Margin norms, starting 1st March, 2021, customers are expected to have 50% of the peak margin available with the broker i.e intraday leverage provided for Equity Cash and F&amp;O Intraday would be 2X going forward.
