Settlement Delay Alert: Trades on Sept 8 to Follow T+2 Cycle:

Settlement Delay Alert: Trades on Sept 8 to Follow T+2 Cycle Due to back-to-back settlement holidays on Friday and Monday, trades executed today (September 8) in the equity cash segment will settle on a T+2 basis instead of the regular T+1. Accordingly, settlements that would normally occur on Tuesday will now take place on Wednesday. However, previously the exchanges had declared September 5 as a settlement holiday. The exchanges updated that both September 5 and September 8 will be settlement holidays by following the Government of Maharashtra's notice of shift in public holiday for Eid-e-Milad to September 8.

What do you mean by settlement holiday?

A Settlement holidays are days when trading in financial markets continues as usual but the clearance and settlement of trades are suspended. This happens because the financial institutions and systems responsible for transferring funds and securities, including banks and depositors, are closed for the day. However, the Indian stock market follows a T+1 settlement system. It is a system in which settlement occurs one business day after the trade date. You can place the orders for buying or selling shares on these days but the delivery will not occur the next day.
