I am observing an issue with TTL (Time-To-Live) validity orders for SELL transactions where the orders are not getting auto-cancelled after the configured TTL duration.
Affected Order IDs • 260128220507850 (NESTLEIND26FEBFUT) • 260128220745227 (SUNPHARMA26FEBFUT)
Order Configuration (Common) • Exchange: NFO • Product: NRML • Order Type: LIMIT • Transaction Type: SELL • Validity: TTL • TTL Duration: 75 minutes • Variety: regular • Status Observed: OPEN (even after TTL elapsed)
Based on TTL order documentation: • Order should be automatically cancelled by the system after 75 minutes • Order status should transition to CANCELLED / EXPIRED
Actual Behavior • Order remains in OPEN state • No expiry or cancellation triggered even after TTL duration elapsed • Requires manual cancellation
Clarification Required
Could you please help confirm: 1. Is TTL auto-expiry handled differently for SELL orders compared to BUY orders? 2. Are there any exchange-level constraints (NFO segment / Futures) where TTL cancellation may not trigger reliably? 3. Does TTL countdown depend on exchange time, system time, or order update timestamp? 4. Is this expected behavior or a potential issue on the OMS / API side?
This behavior impacts automated trading systems which rely on TTL for safe order management and risk control.
@chaitanyad Custom TTL validity is not supported in the order placement APIs; hence, such orders will not be auto-cancelled by the system after the specified duration. You may refer to the similar discussion here.
Hope this should work , Please confirm
