Margin Pledge: List of cash equivalent and collateral equivalent entities

Hello Upstox,

I’m having difficulty finding a list that includes script names, haircuts, and specifies whether it’s collateral margin or cash equivalent margin. Could you please provide this information or direct me to a page where it’s available? Thank you.

Okay this helps. I have pledged both kind of scripts, cash equivalent as well as collateral margin ones. Can you please tell me where can I see the split of total margin received into cash equivalent margin and collateral equivalent margin

I am looking at the list but it does not include many popular ETFs like niftybees etc. Also the cash equivalent categorization is as good as other brokers like zerodha. Eg. goldbees is generally a cash equivalent but sheet says otherwise. Please clarify.

Upstox is general good only for option buyers, their most policies including pledge list is very bad for sellers. They used to refuse 50 percent non cash and 50 percent cash eq, up until very recently. They want you to keep cash in your account which they can reuse free of cost and charge their customers for MTF.

Hi @pseud_vg,

Whether a scrip is marked as cash equivalent or not is depended on the specification given by exchange. Upstox follows the list provided by exchange for marking any scrips as cash equivalent or not.

Also, NIFTYBEES are available for pledging on Upstox as mentioned in the list under the name NIFTY BMARK EXCH. TRD FND
You can download the list from here - Upstox Accounts

Currently, we are offering 1300+ scrips including Stocks, ETFs, SGBs and Mutual Funds. This will soon be expanded.

Some of the features of margin pledge are as follow

  1. Get margins super fast within 15 mins

  3. Collateral margin can be used for Equity Intraday trades as well
  4. Mutual funds can also be pledged now. Whole lot more MFs will be added in the eligible list of pledging super soon.
