NSE Clearing Limited has issued a circular (Ref No: 016/2026) under the Currency Derivatives Segment announcing revised timings for collateral up-streaming, down-streaming, and allocation windows specifically for April 17, 2026. This is in reference to the SEBI circular on Settlement of Running Account of Client’s Funds lying with Trading Members.

Key Points

  • The collateral up-streaming and down-streaming window for cash and fixed deposit receipts (FDR) will remain open until 8:00 PM on April 17, 2026.
  • The collateral allocation window will remain open until 10:00 PM on April 17, 2026.
  • NSE Clearing will endeavor to release Cash/FDR/Bank Guarantee (BG) within one hour of a request from the clearing member, subject to available collateral after necessary margin checks.

Regulatory Changes

No new regulatory changes are introduced. This circular references the existing SEBI circular SEBI/HO/MIRSD/DOP/P/CIR/2022/101 dated July 27, 2022, regarding Settlement of Running Account of Client’s Funds lying with Trading Members, and provides a temporary operational adjustment to collateral window timings.

Compliance Requirements

  • Clearing members in the Currency Derivatives Segment must take note of the revised collateral window timings applicable on April 17, 2026.
  • Members should plan their collateral up-streaming and down-streaming activities to align with the extended window (until 8:00 PM) and allocation window (until 10:00 PM).

Important Dates

  • Circular Date: April 13, 2026
  • Effective Date: April 17, 2026 (one-day change in timings)
  • Collateral up-streaming/down-streaming window (Cash/FDR): open until 8:00 PM
  • Collateral allocation window: open until 10:00 PM

Impact Assessment

This is an operational adjustment with medium impact on clearing members in the Currency Derivatives Segment. The extended timings on April 17, 2026 likely accommodate a non-standard trading or settlement day (possibly a holiday-adjacent date). Clearing members need to update their operational schedules for that day. The one-hour turnaround commitment for Cash/FDR/BG releases provides operational clarity. No direct impact on equity or other segments.
