How much margin is required to buy stocks?

On Sahi, you can check the exact margin requirements for each order right on the order placement screen before confirming the trade. For example, if you’re buying a stock for delivery at ₹100, you'll need the full ₹100 since it has a leverage of 1X. But if you're trading the same stock on an intraday basis, your margin requirement may be just ₹20, as the position will be squared off by the end of the trading session—giving you a 5X leverage advantage.
