June 29, 2026

The margin trading facility (MTF) book surged in June for the third consecutive month — rising to a record ₹1.33 trillion, hinting at a strong appetite among investors for leverage bets despite market fluctuations.

- KHUSHBOO TIWARI

As of June 24, the MTF book recorded a jump of 5.9 percent month-on-month (M-o-M). In April and May, it had grown by 9.7 percent and 8.8 per cent, respectively. In comparison, the leverage facility had seen a decline for the first time in February after growing for 10 months. The decline had continued in March with MTF softening to ₹1.05 trillion in March amidst cautiousness and volatility.

Despite the minor blip, the MTF book has sustained above ₹1 trillion since October 2025.

The rise is also on the back of several brokers offering the facility in recent years.

MTF allows investors to pay only a portion of the trade value upfront, with brokers funding the rest at an interest cost.
