4 Top ICICI Direct Margin Funding Picks For December 2021

Like cash calls, some of the brokerages do come with ''Margin Funding Picks' based on the exclusive and extensive research for Margin trading products. Note not all scrips are covered under Margin trading. For a layman Margin Trading facility or funding can be understood as a facility wherein investors are allowed to buy shares and scrips even if they are short of funds just by paying a portion of the total transaction value called a margin.

Note this margin can be either in cash or as collateral against securities pledged with the broker.

Say for instance: 100 shares of RIL (worth Rs. 2.5 lakh)- Cash payment

With MTF, if we deploy just 30% margin, then on the remaining Rs. 1.75 lakh there shall be interest on daily basis or it shall be accumulated in your broker account. The interest varies based on the brokerage plan you choose with your broker. In case of ICICI Direct, the interest charged can be between 8.9-18%p.a.

Here the benefit is that even if you pay interest on the money borrowed, if the stock is in uptrend you end up making smart gains over and above the interest payable by tapping this opportunity of leveraging.
