Unable to Short the following stocks on intraday i.e., MIS

avinashsringeri
I was unable to short following stocks on Jan 25th 2017. These stocks are of type "EQ" not "BE" or "BL". Is there any reason why these stocks are restricted on Zerodha?

    This is the error message i get on placing order "Security is not allowed to trade in this market "

    Actually I am getting "rms:blocked for nse_cm" error. I looked into another thread and understood its Zerodha's risk management system. There should be an option to short these stocks with 100% margin. Why are you folks restricting?

    Is it the same case with all brokers or is it only with Zerodha? Almost 2/3 of the stocks fail with this error. I dont want to use any leverage at all. Why is RMS stopping me?

    Hi @avinashsringeri,
    I think these mid-cap instruments are not allowed to trade in MIS.
    I am not sure about RMS process. Please write to support, someone from RMS will get back to you.

    Sure. I will check with support. Thanks Sujith.
