Karachi: In a recent quarterly review by the National Clearing Company of Pakistan Limited (NCCPL), two new securities, Kot Addu Power Company Limited (KAPCO) and Pakistan International Bulk Terminal (PIBTL), have been added to the list of eligible securities for the Margin Trading System (MTS) and MT (R) Transaction margins. This updated list will be effective from Friday, January 30, 2026.

The review, conducted in accordance with the NCCPL Regulations 2015, outlined that these securities are now eligible for a contract length of 60 days. This inclusion reflects the eligibility of these securities to meet the required criteria set forth by the NCCPL for margin trading.

According to information available from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), a comprehensive list of 60 securities has been approved for the MTS, including prominent names such as AGP Limited, Adamjee Insurance Company Limited, and Airlink Communication Limited, among others. The securities retained due to applicable relaxation include AGP Limited, Ghani Glass Limited, International Steels Limited, and At-Tahur Limited, each receiving a relaxation count of one.

However, the review also highlights certain exclusions. Dolmen City REIT, Symmetry Group Limited, TPL Properties Limited, and Waves Home Appliance Limited have been removed from the eligibility list owing to various reasons, such as not meeting the average turnover and trade value criteria, failing the 22nd percentile benchmark criteria, and financial losses over recent years.

This updated eligibility list plays a crucial role in facilitating margin trading activities for the designated market category, providing investors with a structured framework to trade these securities under the MTS.
