Broker Running Account Settlement Dates 2026-27: Quarterly and Monthly Calendar

Quick answer: The October 2026 monthly settlement and the Q3 (October–December) quarterly settlement of broker running accounts fall on Friday 16 and/or Saturday 17 October 2026. The stock exchanges publish two dates, a Friday and/or the Saturday after, for each settlement.

What this is

Under SEBI's circular of 28 December 2023, trading members settle the running account of clients' funds at a quarterly or monthly frequency chosen by the client, on dates set in an annual calendar that the exchanges prescribe jointly. This is different from the T+1 settlement of individual share trades. How it affects your account depends on your broker and the option you chose, so check with your broker.
