EQ: It stands for ‘Equity’. In this series, intraday trading is possible in addition to delivery.

BE:  It stands for ‘Book Entry’. Shares falling in the Trade-to-Trade or T-segment are traded in this series and no intraday is allowed. This means trades can only be settled by accepting or giving the delivery of shares.

BL: This series is for facilitating block deals. ‘Block Deal’ is a trade, with a minimum quantity of 5 lakh shares or minimum value of Rs. 5 crore, executed through a single transaction, on the special “Block Deal window”. The window is opened for only 35 minutes in the morning from 9:15 to 9:50AM.

BT: This series provides an exit route to small investors having shares in the physical form with a cap of maximum 500 shares.

BZ: Stocks that are blacklisted for violation of exchange rules. This series stocks falls under Trade-to-Trade category and hence BTST (Buy Today Sell Tomorrow) and intraday is not allowed in such stocks.

GC: This series allows Government Securities and Treasury Bills to be traded under this category.

IL: This series allows only FIIs to trade among themselves. Permissible only in those securities where maximum permissible limit for FIIs is not breached.

      Hello Ishita,
      In both the categories, you can only trade stocks for compulsory delivery. This means, intraday is not allowed. In BSE, Trade-to-Trade stocks are categorized under T group. In NSE such stocks are categorized under BE series. From traders point of view there is no difference between both the categories.

      Hello Shivani,
      We are sorry to say but we didn’t get you. The NSE & BSE categorize stocks based on their volume, liquidity, etc.

      Hello Trilochan,
      If the stock is move to BE series then while selling the stock, select series as BE on the order window and submit the order. Same goes with EQ series too. You cannot sell BE stocks in EQ. If you sell BE shares in EQ (or vice versa) then this is considered as a fresh order.

    Hi, I have a shares which I bought that time it didn’t show any Be but today in the morning when I saw it was showing Be besides the share name , so what does that mean will be my share in loss or should I sell my shares as soon as possible. Because of Be do I have to face a loss

      Hi Puja,
      Exchange revises the stock series based on the performance of the stock. You don’t have to worry about it. You are not in loss. The only difference is, if shares are categorized as BE then shares are not allowed for intraday trading. Since you have the delivery shares in your demat account, you can sell any time or you can continue keeping the same shares in your demat account.

      Hello Sherin,
      You can sell the available BE series in one exchange and buy it another. The BE series (Trade to trade) stocks are settled on or after T+2 trading/clearing days. In other words, even if you sell it one exchange and buy it another, it shall be treated as delivery trades only.

      EQ refers to normal series in which stocks can be traded in intraday too. E1 is the series in which only party paid stocks are treded. Like, recently there was Reliance rights issue announcement. Clients have purchased the shares by paying a part installment amount and rest amount are to be paid later as per Reliance company schedule. Such partly paid stocks are traded in E1 series.

    My question as follows:
    1) In BE Equity shares, I purchased in NSE 100 quantity and is it possible to sell the 100 shares of NSE in BSE.
    2) while purchasing the Equity in EQ and afterward it converts to BE shall we sell it on (BE) that time and vice versa?
    3) If we purchase the stock on BE and sustain on BE, so is it possible to sell within 3 or 4 days in BE?
    4) Is there any quantity limitations on that BE shares while buying or selling?

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hi Tom,
      1) If the stock is in BE series then you are required to wait till you receive the delivery shares from exchange. Once you receive the shares on T+2 days then you can sell in any exchange i.e BSE or NSE. Intraday is not allowed in BE series stocks.
      2) Yes, you can sell provided you delivery shares in your demat account.
      3) Once you buy shares in BE, you receive the shares from exchange on next two days. After you receive shares, you sell at any time. To answer your query, you can sell after 3 days and not withing 3 days.
      4) There is no special limitations to BE series. However, please have a look at the article on Maximum quantity in single order.

    When can I square off my BE series shares if I purchased today[minimum holding period]? Can I close the position tomorrow?

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hello Thambidurai,
      As per exchange’s T+2 settlement cycle, you are required to keep shares for 2 days. You can square off your shares after you get the delivery from exchange on T+2 days. However, you may buy today and sell tomorrow but before that we would recommend you to know the risk involved in BTST(buy today sell tomorrow) trades that may cause short delivery.

      Good afternoon sir, today ninu NDTV 20shares buy delivery order lo chesanu,but squareoff chesi sell cheste this stock is not available in your holding ani antunadi sir

      1. Trade Smart Online

        Hello Rajendra,
        Sorry, we did not understand the language. We guess, you must have bought shares in delivery and trying to sell the same shares in delivery on the same day. In this case, the system will not allow you to sell the shares in delivery because it checks whether you have any holdings in your account. Hence, it was giving you the reason of stock is not available in your holdings. If you want to buy and sell on the same day then you can trade in intraday using MIS order type instead of CNC order type. Please let us know if your question is not addressed.
