    How is the average price of stocks determined in Portfolio as per FIFO method?

    The price of stocks is determined based on the FIFO (First In First Out) method in Portfolio. The FIFO method is applicable in Cash (Delivery) segment and MTF. In case of Intraday, since the shares are bought and sold on the same day, the position is squared immediately.

    The FIFO method assumes that the stocks that were purchased first are sold first. Consequently, the stocks that are purchased later are sold later.

    Example:

    Mr. A purchased shares of TATAMOTORS on the following dates:

    Action

    Date

    		 Qty Price Value

    Buy

    		 Oct-01 100 10 1000
    Buy Nov-01 50 15 750
    Buy Dec-01 150 20 3000
        300   4750

    Average Price = 4750/300 = 15.83333

    Now, suppose Mr. A performs a sell transaction as follows:

    Action

    Date

    		 Qty Price Value

    Sell

    		 Jan-01 130 30 3900

    The calculation of the average price of the remaining shares in Portfolio as per FIFO is shown in the table below:

    Qty Price Value
    20 (50-30) 15 300
    150 20 3000
    170   3300

    Now, the average price = 3300/170 = 19.41176
