Why only Group I stocks?

These are the most traded stocks, so they are easier for a broker to sell if it needs its money back.

Equity ETFs qualify too. The exchange’s list is the outer limit. Each broker picks its own list from it.

What if your stock leaves the list while you hold it?

Your broker’s policy decides. Ask it what happens to an open position, because the funding on that stock can change.

Brokers keep the right to change their lists. Paytm Money, for one, calls its list tentative and says it can change at any time. A smaller funding share means you may have to add margin.

How do you check a stock?

Look it up on our stock pages for the exchange list, then confirm in your broker’s app before you trade.
