SEBI amends the Master Circular on handling unpaid client securities by trading members. For non-MTF trades, unpaid securities must be directly credited to the client's demat account and auto-pledged to a CUSPA account, with client communication on the funds obligation and TM's sale right. TMs must maintain a client-facing policy, cap the payment period at five trading days, avoid granting exposure on these securities, and release excess pledge daily. If payment is not made, the TM must invoke and liquidate the pledge with notice; if neither invoked nor released within five trading days, the pledge auto-releases on the sixth trading day. Further pledging to banks/NBFCs is prohibited, and limited extension is allowed only in specified exceptional circumstances.
