Unlock More Capital: Use Your HDFC Sky Portfolio as MTF Collateral

• HDFC Sky's Margin Trading Facility (MTF) allows investors to use existing shares as collateral to increase buying power without fresh funds.
• Pledging shares means they act as security for a loan, remaining in your Demat account but blocked until the margin loan is repaid.
• Benefits include enhanced buying power, leverage, retaining long-term holdings, and flexibility for various trading segments.
• The process involves activating DDPI, selecting eligible shares, initiating a pledge request, and authenticating via CDSL/NSDL.
• Users must understand margin calls, daily interest (around 12% p.a.), and fees (₹20 + GST per ISIN) associated with MTF and pledging.
