Are Margin Requirements and MTM Adjustments Reflected in the Derivatives P&L Report?

The Profit & Loss – Derivatives report on Samco Star reflects your realised P&L on closed F&O positions, including the impact of MTM (Mark-to-Market) settlements.

In F&O trading, MTM adjustments happen daily; your open positions are marked to the closing price at the end of each trading session, and the difference is credited or debited to your account. Once a position is closed, the cumulative MTM adjustments form part of your final realised P&L, which is what the report captures.

Margin requirements themselves are not shown as a P&L line item they are a deposit held against your open positions. You can check your current margin usage and blocked margins on the Samco Star dashboard under Your Assets, which shows Margins Blocked alongside your Cash Available and Holdings.

For a complete view of your F&O account activity including margin debits and credits, refer to the Ledger section on Samco Star.
