Rohan, a client, buys shares on the cash segment on Monday under the T+1 rolling settlement. When will the pay-in and pay-out of the securities and funds normally take place?

Under T+1 rolling settlement, a trade done on Monday is settled on the next business day, Tuesday, with pay-in and pay-out of funds and securities occurring then. Wednesday would correspond to the older T+2 cycle and is therefore incorrect.

  2. BOn Tuesday, the next trading dayCorrect
  3. COn Wednesday
  4. DOn Friday

Explanation

Under T+1 rolling settlement, trades done on day T are settled on the next working day. A Monday trade therefore settles on Tuesday, assuming it is a business day and not a holiday. Wednesday would be T+2, which is the older cycle.
