Margin requirements are crucial when trading in thestock marketas they determine how much capital a trader must maintain in their account to initiate or hold a position.
Margin can be categorized into two broad types:
A. Initial Margin
• The minimum amount required to enter a position.
• Computed as a percentage of the total trade value.
B. Maintenance Margin
• The minimum balance that must be maintained to keep a position open.
• If the account falls below this, a margin call may be issued.
Note:The leverage is provided as per the RMS policy.

Fresh FNO Position – BUY (Intraday)

Hence, margin required = 75,000 x 50% = 37500
