to place, i.e Day Order, Session Order or Good Till Date (GTD) Order. By default
all orders submitted are treated as "Day Orders" which is valid for both trading
sessions and expires by the end of the trading day if not matched. Session Order
will limit your order to that particular session only whereas GTD Order is a
standing instruction order. The unmatched GTD Order will be automatically
carried forward to the next trading session until it is matched and will only expire
on the date specified by you.

Note: Your GTD order will not be checked and rejected by system for any Corporate Actions
(e.g. Capital Reduction, Capital Restructuring, Right Issue etc) announced during the validity

cancel the order if required, as Corporate Actions normally involve change of price and/or
quantity on ex-date.
