MTF (Margin Trading Facility) helps you buy stocks by paying only a part of the total value, known as the initial margin. The remaining amount is funded by ICICI Direct.
Points to note:
Let’s assume you find an investment or trading opportunity worth ₹4,00,000, but you have only ₹1,00,000 available in your bank account. Normally, you wouldn’t be able to take this position.
However, with MTF offering up to 4× leverage (subject to stock eligibility), you can take the position.
Illustration
The funded amount attracts interest, starting as low as 9.65% per annum, depending on your brokerage plan. This position can be held for up to 360 days.
Interest under MTF is charged on the funded amount for the number of days the position is held. At ICICI Direct, the interest rate goes as low as 9.65% p.a., depending on your brokerage plan. Interest calculation begins from the exchange pay-in date (T+1 day) and continues until the T+1 day of settlement after the position is squared off.
Interest is calculated on a daily basis, including weekends and non-working days.
Example: If you buy shares worth ₹4,00,000 using ₹1,00,000 of your own funds, ICICI Direct funds the remaining ₹3,00,000.
You can use the MTF Calculator to estimate charges in advance.
ICICI Direct offer MTF on 1400+ stocks. You can view the stock list to check which stocks are eligible for MTF.
Shares purchased under MTF can be held for up to 360 days. To avoid square-off due to a margin shortfall, ensure that you maintain adequate margins and monitor your positions regularly.
