What is BTST?

Also called: Buy today sell tomorrow

Hinglish mein padhein: BTST kya hota hai?

BTST means buying shares today and selling them the next trading day, before they are credited to your demat account.

It depends on the seller delivering the shares on settlement day. If they fail (short delivery), your sale may be closed out in an auction at a penalty.

BTST trades are delivery trades for STT purposes.
