How is trade_id generated in tradebook?

In kite.trades(), we get a trade_id for each trade. How is it generated?

My main question is, Is it generated in ascending order based on fill time? I am implementing some logic in my code, so need to know.

Also, is it generated by Kite or Exchange?

    It is generated by a respective exchange order book. Go through the documentation here.

    Yes, mostly. But, most probably those trade_id won't be a subsequent number.
