                    Q: 
                    What is settlement cycle?
 A: Settlement cycle is an accounting period for the 
                    securities traded on the exchange. At present, trading being 
                    done on the basis of T+3 rolling settlement system which 
                    employs that the trading done on Monday is settled on the 
                    3rd day i.e. on Thursday. Likewise, trading done on Tuesday 
                    will be settled on Friday and so on. On settlement day, the 
                    obligations of each broker are calculated and the brokers 
                    settle their respective obligations as per the rules and 
                    regulations of the Exchange.
