SLBM Rollover Feature Request

Feature Requests ✋
1

I would like to request a Rollover Feature for SLBM (Securities Lending and Borrowing Mechanism) positions.

Currently, when a lending series expires, the shares are returned to the lender’s account, and if the investor wishes to continue lending for the next series, a fresh lending order must be placed manually. This creates unnecessary effort for investors who regularly participate in SLBM lending.

Current Challenges

  • Manual re-entry of lending orders every month

  • Risk of missing lending opportunities between series

  • Additional effort for long-term lenders who lend the same stocks repeatedly

  • Inconvenient portfolio management, especially for users with multiple SLBM positions

  • Possibility of losing continuity in lending income due to delays in placing fresh orders

Suggested Enhancement

Please provide an option to:

:white_check_mark: Roll Over Existing Lending Positions to the next available series before expiry.

The feature could include:

  • One-click rollover to the next month’s series

  • Auto-rollover option (user-controlled)

  • Display of lending fee/rate for the new series before confirmation

  • Ability to modify quantity during rollover

  • Advance expiry notifications with rollover option

  • Single-screen management of all upcoming rollovers

Industry Practice

This facility is already available with certain other market participants and depository participants such as Motilal Oswal and Nirmal Bang, where investors can conveniently roll over their existing SLBM lending positions to the next series instead of creating a completely fresh transaction every month.

Introducing a similar feature on Dhan would significantly improve the SLBM experience and bring greater convenience to active lenders.

Benefits

  • Better user experience

  • Reduced manual effort

  • Higher participation in SLBM lending

  • Improved operational efficiency

  • Better retention of lending positions

  • Increased lending volumes on the platform

  • Competitive feature enhancement in line with industry practices

As Dhan has been continuously innovating in investment products, adding an SLBM rollover facility would be a valuable enhancement for long-term investors and active lenders.

Thank you for considering this suggestion.

I have huge amount with me which I want to transfer to my Dhan App which I cannot do because Dhan is not providing me SLB rollover feature. Me and my family members want to put crores in stock market through Dhan due to its low SLB price. But we can’t do it, because no one from us wants to take risk in monthly lending as rollover gives margin to seek for an extra month for better price. We want to continue with Dhan due to its low brokerage of 5%, instead of zerodha which charges brokerage of 20%, but due to lack of feature we are unable to do so. Please it is a request to launch this feature as soon as possible so that we can move our corpus to Dhan.

Hi @Aradhana thank you for your interest in Dhan. The rollover feature isn’t live yet, but we’re planning to launch it this quarter. In the meantime, rollover is available as a call-and-trade service where you can connect with our team to initiate a rollover.
