Can I place a sell Good Till Triggered (GTT) order?

Investors may place Good Till Triggered (GTT) sell orders depending on the type of account they hold.


If the account is managed with a Power of Attorney (POA), the order will be placed without needing any additional authorisation for selling shares via a GTT order. The order is then triggered automatically when the price goes through the trigger price.


If it is a non-POA account, an additional step will be required as the user must authorise the delivery of their shares with the Central Depository Services (India) Limited (CDSL) TPIN when placing the GTT sell order.


With scheduled GTT sell orders, this approval should be given on every day the market is operational until the order is triggered; if the shares have not been authorised on the day of the trigger, the GTT order will be rejected and investors will have to place the order again.


To facilitate daily authorisation, demat holdings to be acted on as part of a scheduled GTT order can be authorised using the following methods:

  • Tapping the critical alert notification banner, sent every morning after 7:05 a.m.

  • Reply to the nudge that is shown under the GTT order book.
