Imagine it’s late at night, and you’re finally relaxing after a long day. As you browse through financial news, you spot a promising bond opportunity. But the market is closed, and you’re left wondering if you’ll miss out by morning. If this sounds familiar, we have great news for you! IndiaBonds is excited to announce the launch of our new feature: After Market Order (AMO). This innovative addition empowers investors to place orders outside of regular trading hours, making it easier to secure investment opportunities at their convenience.

What is After Market Order (AMO)?

An After Market Order allows you to place investment orders for bonds beyond regular market hours. Yes, you heard that right! You can now invest 24×7, including weekends and public holidays.

Benefits of AMO

Invest 24×7: With AMO, you can place your orders at any time, whether it’s late at night, early in the morning, or during weekends and holidays. This means you no longer have to miss out on investment opportunities because of time constraints.

Avoid Missed Opportunities: Market conditions can change rapidly, and some bonds might get oversubscribed quickly. By placing an AMO, you can ensure your orders are queued up for execution when the market opens, giving you a better chance to secure your desired investments.

Extended Research Time: AMO gives you the flexibility to thoroughly research and analyze your investment options without the pressure of market hours. This can lead to more informed and strategic investment decisions.

How Does AMO Work?

After Market Orders are collected by the platform and executed once the market opens. Here’s a simple breakdown of the process:

Order Placement: You can place an AMO anytime outside the regular trading hours.

Payment: You make the payment straight away for your order through secure Payment Gateway (PG) and your money is held in a safe escrow account with the PG.

Market Execution: Once the market opens, the orders are executed in the sequence they were placed, subject to market conditions and availability.

Why AMO is a Game-Changer for You

Traditional market hours can be a bit of a juggle with your busy schedule. Our AMO feature lets you:

– Invest 24×7: Place orders at your convenience, anytime that suits you.

– Pre-Book Investments: Avoid missing out on great opportunities due to oversubscription.
