Announcements

The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) has published updated settlement dates for FY2026-27 via Circular NSE/INSP/72413 (Circular Ref. No. 4/2026, dated 20 January 2026), issued in accordance with SEBI Circular SEBI/HO/MIRSD/MIRSD-PoD1/P/CIR/2023/197 dated 28 December 2023.

The settlement dates have been jointly prescribed by all exchanges and apply to all Trading Members. Please note the new dates for Q1 FY2026-27 below.

Every 3 months, brokers must transfer unused funds from your trading account to your bank account, as per SEBI rules. This is called Quarterly Fund Settlement.

📅 New dates for Q1 FY2026-27: Friday, 17 April 2026 &/or Saturday, 18 April 2026. These dates have changed from the previous quarter — please update your plans accordingly.

So, on Friday, 17 April 2026 &/or Saturday, 18 April 2026, any unused funds in your Upstox account will be sent to your registered bank account. You can check your bank statement to confirm the refund.

👉 Want your funds to come back automatically into your Upstox account on Monday? Just set up a 'Fund Reversal' mandate from the Funds tab in the app.

⚠️ If you don't, your account balance may show ₹0 on Monday, 20 April, and you'll need to add funds again before trading.

👉 For NEFT/RTGS transfers, please add Upstox as a beneficiary by Thursday, 16 April:

⏳ Due to high transaction volumes, fund transfers could take up to 2 working days. This won't affect your current orders, holdings, or positions.

📌 Reference: NSE Circular NSE/INSP/72413, Ref. No. 4/2026, dated 20 January 2026. Issued by Ajay Darji, Associate Vice President, NSE Inspection Department.

1 April 2026 (Wednesday) is a settlement holiday on account of the Annual Bank Closure. Markets will be OPEN for trading and investing.

What’s a settlement holiday? Settlement holidays are when markets are open, but settlement of your trades does not take place as per the usual T+1 cycle because either the depositaries (NSDL and CDSL) or the banks are closed on that day.

How does this holiday impact your trades? Since the settlement date denotes the final transfer of ownership of shares and not the day you made the trade, a holiday in between causes a delay in the final transfer of shares.

You can also check the list of future settlement holidays here.

If you have any queries, you can raise a ticket on the Upstox Pro Mobile or Desktop app.

Happy Trading, Team Upstox.
