Last few fridays while doing intraday option selling on sensex contracts, I have seen that the margin available displayed is wrong (this happens after am in an out of few SENSEX trades). The front end both on web and mobile shows an erroneously high margin available. The backend seems to be correct as it promptly disallows the order. This is confusing while trading as am not sure how much is left. Please look into this.
@Naman this was another issue we were chatting about some days ago.
One such instant screenshot is given below.
In this case, I had already bought a hedge leg. So I needed around 13L margin to open the short position, much less than what is shown as available.
The margin available displayed on the frontend is wrong sometimes. This is my guess based on what I have observed.
