No, margin is blocked on the order, which attracts higher Margin out of the Buy or Sell order. If you have placed both a buy and sell order in the same contract Margin blocked would be the maximum of the two orders. Illustration As in the above illustration the sell order attracts a margin of (a) Rs 96000/-. If you place a Buy order in the same Contract OPT-ACC-30-May-2002-150-CA 3000 at Rs 20/- it would attract margin of (b) Rs 60,000/-. Margin blocked would be the higher of the two margins (a) or (b) i.e. Rs 96,000/-.
