of the account and prior to commencement of trading. The Client
shall be permitted to trade up to a pre-determined number of times
of the Margin (the "Multiple") and the
quantum of the Multiple on the Margin shall be
as decided at the sole discretion of the Member. The Margin will
not be interest bearing. The Member shall have, at its sole discretion,
the irrevocable right to set off a part or whole of the Margin i.e.
by way of appropriation of the relevant amount of cash or by sale
or transfer of all or some of the securities which form part of
the Margin, against any dues of the Client or of a member of the
Group of the Client (for the purposes of these Terms, "Group"
shall mean all the individuals, group companies, firms, entities
and other persons as specified in the schedule to the Member Client
Agreement) in the event of the failure of the Client or a member
of the Group of the Client to meet any of their respective obligations
under these Terms.
(ii) In case where the payment by the Client towards
the Margin is made through a cheque issued in favor of the Member,
any trade(s) would be executed by the Member only upon the realization
of the funds of the said cheque.
(iii) The Client agrees and authorizes the Member
to determine the market value of securities placed as Margin. The
Client undertakes to monitor the market value of such securities
on a continuous basis. The Client further undertakes to replenish
any shortfall in the value of the Margin consequent to a fall in
the market value of such securities placed as Margin immediately
whether or not the Member intimates such shortfall.
(iv) The Member may at its sole discretion prescribe
the payment of Margin in the form of cash instead of securities.
The Client accepts to comply with the Member's requirement of payment
of Margin in the form of cash immediately failing which the Member
may sell, dispose, transfer or deal in any other manner the securities
already placed with it as Margin or square off all or some of the
positions of the Client as it deems fit in its discretion without
further reference to the Client and any resultant or associated
losses that may occur due to such square off/sale shall be borne
by the Client, and the Member is hereby fully indemnified and held
harmless by the Client in this behalf.
(v) The Client agrees that any securities placed
by him/her/it as Margin may in turn be placed as margin by the Member
with the Exchange or banks or such other institutions as the Member
may deem fit. The Client authorises the Member to do all such acts,
deeds and things as may be necessary and expedient for placing such
securities with the Exchange/banks/institutions as margin.
(vi) Any reference in these terms to sale or transfer
of securities by the Member shall be deemed to include sale of the
securities, which form part of the Margin, maintained by the Client
with the Member. In exercise of the Member's right to sell securities
under the Agreement, the Client agrees that the choice of specific
securities to be sold shall be solely at the Member's discretion.

any orders that may be executed without the required Margin in the

has executed a power of attorney in terms of Clause 3.1 of these
Terms). If the Client's order is executed despite a shortfall in
the available Margin, the Client shall, whether or not the Member
intimates such shortfall in Margin to the Client, instantaneously
make up the shortfall either through delivery of shares in the event
of a sale or credit the required funds in the bank account via wire
or personal cheque, banker’s cheque or money order or account
transfer or any other mode.
(b) The Client's positions are valued at the latest
market price available ('mark to market') on a continuous basis
by the Member. If on such mark to market, the loss incurred by the
Client is more than the Margin available with the Member, the Client
shall instantaneously pay additional Margin.
(c) If payment/securities towards the Margin or
shortfall in Margin is not received instantaneously to enable restoration
of sufficient Margin in the Client's account, all or some of the
positions of the Client may be squared off or the securities placed
as Margin by the Client may be sold off by the Member at its sole
discretion, without any further reference to the Client and without
prior notification, and any resultant or associated losses that
may occur due to such squaring off or sale of securities shall be
borne by the Client, and the Member is hereby fully indemnified
and held harmless by the Client in this behalf.

right to reject any order that may be made by the Client for any
reason whatsoever including for the breach of the requirement of

that is made by the Client by mistake and every order that is entered

or partially, instruct the bank to transfer the amount equal to
such obligation to the Member's account on the settlement date or
the pay in or pay out date and release the balance amounts that

placed by the Client with the Member as margin and lying in the
depository account. The Client shall also authorise the designated
Depository participant to block the securities sold in the designated
Depository account against the Client's order to sell securities.

either fully or partially, instruct the depository participant to
transfer the securities which are sold, to the UAE Exchange &
Finance Ltd pool account in time to meet the settlement obligation
and release the balance securities that were blocked in the case
of partial execution or all the securities that are blocked in the
case of non execution. The Client agrees that it will not be allowed
to pledge, instruct transfer or otherwise use the blocked securities
in its account. The Client also agrees that the blocking of the
securities will be given first priority as against any other instructions
issued by it against the blocked securities.

In a case where the Client executes both or any
of the powers of attorney referred to above, the Client shall be
entitled to exercise the right to close/freeze/pledge the accounts
