India’s capital markets are witnessing a new wave of digitally empowered participation.

With digital platforms like Kotak Neo adopting innovative investing mechanisms, MTF is emerging as a critical enabler for expanding opportunities and improving capital efficiency.
Financial innovation in capital markets is now being driven by intelligent, data-led decision systems. MTF, powered by intuitive digital platforms and precise margin calculators, is at the forefront of this evolution.
Understanding MTF: The Power Of Leverage
Margin trading facility enables investors to buy more assets than their available capital would normally allow. Essentially, it enables investors to leverage their positions by borrowing funds from a broker and using their existing portfolio as collateral.
For example, if a trader has to purchase ₹5 lakh shares but only has ₹2 lakh cash, MTF can help them get the remaining ₹3lakhs from the broker at a pre-decided interest rate. They help participate in bigger opportunities attracting risk at the same time while maintaining the freedom to invest their capital in other forms. The broker pays the rest of the money using SEBI-approved methods.
Kotak Securities offers MTF for both delivery and intraday positions. Investors gain access to a broader selection of stocks and companies. Its margin calculator tracks margin utilisation and exposure continuously. Adding these kinds of tools makes sure that buyers always know how much money they need, what collateral they have, and how much risk they are taking before they make a move.
