Alternatively, you can also trade using Margin Trade Funding (MTF) as the order type. Under MTF, you are required to pay a minimum 25% of the trade value upfront, in the form of cash / stocks as collaterals, and the balance is funded by Kotak Securities at a nominal interest rate. The position can be open for an indefinite period, i.e., for as long as you want. The difference between MIS and MTF is in the time period for which the position can be held.
