    • B.

      Stop Loss (SL)

    • D.

      None of the above

The remaining quantity is kept hidden. This allows traders to disclose a specific quantity to the market while keeping the rest of their order size confidential. By using the DQ attribute, traders can control the amount of information they reveal to the market, which can be useful in certain trading strategies.

    Correct Answer
    A. Order no. 1.
    Explanation
    Order no. 1 will get a priority for getting executed because it entered into the system first, at 10:30 a.m., while Order no. 2 entered at 10:31 a.m. Since both orders have the same price, the order that enters the system first is given priority.

    • D.

      Both Statement are False

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Statement 1 is true because it states that an active buy order will match with the best passive sell order if the price of the passive sell order is less than or equal to the price of the active buy order. This means that the buyer is willing to pay the same or a higher price than the seller is offering, resulting in a successful match.

    The pre-set Market price protection percentage is by default set to _____ of the LTP

    • A.

      10%

    • B.

      2%

    • C.

      3%

    • D.

      5%

    Correct Answer
    D. 5%
    Explanation
    The pre-set Market price protection percentage is set to 5% of the Last Traded Price (LTP). This means that if the LTP of a stock is $100, the market price protection will ensure that the stock cannot be traded at a price lower than $95 (5% lower than the LTP). This protection mechanism helps prevent sudden and drastic price drops, providing a certain level of stability and security for investors.

    A trading member on the NSE, has set the branch order value unlimited for his Chennai branch and Rs. 800 lakh for Kolkata branch. Chennai branch has two users 'X' and 'Y' with user order limits of Rs. 550 lakh and Rs. 500 lakh respectively. Kolkata branch has one user 'Z' with user order value limit of Rs. 550 lakh. The member applies for a new user at Kolkata. What is the maximum user order value that can be set for the new user?

    • A.

      Not more than Rs. 950 lakh

    • B.

      Zero

    • C.

      Unlimited

    • D.

      Rs. 250 lakh

    Correct Answer
    D. Rs. 250 lakh
    Explanation
    The maximum user order value that can be set for the new user is Rs. 250 lakh. This is because the trading member has set the branch order value for Kolkata branch to be Rs. 800 lakh, and there is already one user 'Z' with a user order value limit of Rs. 550 lakh. Since the branch order value is not unlimited for Kolkata branch, the new user cannot have a user order value limit higher than the remaining branch order value, which is Rs. 250 lakh.

    • A.

      71,686.34

    • B.

      79,383.22

    • C.

      81,232.25

    • D.

      91,444.9

    Correct Answer
    B. 79,383.22
    Explanation
    The present value of the amount due from Chandra can be calculated using the formula for present value of a future amount. The formula is: Present Value = Future Value / (1 + Interest Rate)^n, where n is the number of years. In this case, the future value is Rs. 1,00,000, the interest rate is 8%, and the number of years is 3. Plugging in these values into the formula, the present value is calculated to be Rs. 79,383.22.

    • B.

      Order no. 2

    • C.

      Both will have equal priority

    • D.

      None

    Correct Answer
    B. Order no. 2
    Explanation
    Order no. 2 will get a priority for getting executed because it was entered into the system later than order no. 1. In a first-come-first-serve system, the order that is entered first has a higher priority for execution. Therefore, since order no. 2 was entered at 10:31 a.m., after order no. 1 was entered at 10:30 a.m., it will have a higher priority and will be executed first.

    Two buy orders enter into the system and are unmatched : 1) 200 shares @ Rs. 72.75 at time 10:30 a.m. 2) 300 shares @ Rs. 72.80 at time 10:31 a.m. Which order will get a priority for getting executed.

    • A.

      Order no. 1.

    • B.

      Order no. 2

    • C.

      Both will have equal priority

    • D.

      None

    Correct Answer
    A. Order no. 1.
    Explanation
    In a stock exchange, the priority for order execution is typically determined by the time of entry into the system. The order that arrives first has higher priority.

    In the given scenario:

    1. The first buy order is for 200 shares at Rs. 72.75, entered at 10:30 a.m.
    2. The second buy order is for 300 shares at Rs. 72.80, entered at 10:31 a.m.

    Since the first order was entered into the system at an earlier time (10:30 a.m.), it will have a higher priority for execution compared to the second order entered at a later time (10:31 a.m.).

    Therefore, the order with 200 shares at Rs. 72.75, entered at 10:30 a.m., will get priority for execution over the order for 300 shares at Rs. 72.80, entered at 10:31 a.m.
