CNC: CNC stands for Cash N Carry. Cash and Carry is a product designed for long-term equity investment. When a trader buys a stock under the CNC product and receives it in their Demat account, they have the option to hold the shares for as long as they wish to before selling. Additionally, these stocks can be transferred or gifted to friends, family, or loved ones.
MTF: MTF, or Margin Trade Facility, refers to the practice of borrowing money from a broker to purchase stocks. This allows the investor to acquire more securities than they can afford with their current available funds. Stock brokers provide this facility in exchange for a nominal percentage of the security’s value as margin, and the client must maintain the required margin if they intend to hold the stocks for the long term.
