A cash market is a marketplace for the immediate settlement of transactions involving commodities and securities. In a cash market, the exchange of securities and money between the seller and the buyer takes place in the present, as opposed to the futures market where such an exchange takes place on a specified future date.
Trades done in cash market are settled rolling settlement basis, Under rolling settlement, all trades executed on a trading day are settled X days later. This is called ‘T+X’ rolling settlement, where ‘T’ is the trade date and ‘X’ is the number of business days after trade date on which settlement takes place. The rolling settlement has started on T+2 basis in India, implying that the outstanding positions at the end of the day ‘T’ are compulsorily settled 2 days after the trade date.
