What is the delay in portfolio update after a trade?

By PriyaSahu

The delay in portfolio update after a trade usually takes a few minutes to a few hours, depending on the stock exchange settlement and the platform’s processing system. On Angel One, the portfolio is generally updated shortly after the trade is executed, but in some cases, especially during high traffic or volatility, there may be a slight delay in reflecting the changes.



Why Doesn't My Portfolio Update Immediately After a Trade?

Your portfolio doesn’t update immediately because the stock exchange takes time to confirm the trade and settle it. Angel One then updates the holdings based on the confirmed trades. Sometimes, delays happen due to system load or data syncing, especially during market peaks.



How Long Does It Take for Holdings to Show in Angel One?

After placing a buy trade, the holdings are usually visible in your portfolio within a few minutes. However, official settlement (T+1 day for equity) happens later. So, the actual number of shares gets confirmed after the settlement period, but the portfolio view updates earlier based on trade confirmation.



What Should I Do If My Portfolio Is Not Updating?

If your Angel One portfolio is not updating even after a few hours, try logging out and logging in again. Clear app cache if you’re on mobile. If it still doesn’t update, contact Angel One customer care. It might be due to server delays or pending settlement from the exchange.



Does Angel One Show Real-Time Portfolio Updates?

Yes, Angel One usually shows near real-time updates in the portfolio. However, depending on market activity and technical factors, there might be a small delay of a few minutes. It's good to refresh the app or web page after executing a trade for the latest data.



Is the Delay Same for Buy and Sell Trades?

Yes, both buy and sell trades can face a small delay in reflecting in your portfolio. For buy trades, it shows after the order is executed. For sell trades, the stock will be removed after confirmation. The update timing is similar for both types of transactions.



When Can I See Updated P&L After a Trade?

Your profit and loss (P&L) updates almost immediately after the trade is executed and reflected in the portfolio. However, for exact P&L including charges, wait until the end-of-day update or settlement day (T+1). This gives a more accurate view of your returns.
