Yes, Upstox Plus activates immediately, but activation differs for features and pricing. You get instant access to features, but effective pricing gets activated next working day.

Immediate Access

• Chart 360 premium features
• TBT Order Insights
• 20 Demand and Supply Zones
• 500 price alerts and expanded watchlists
• Priority customer support
• Enhanced API capabilities

Next-Day Activation (Pricing Changes)

• Updated brokerage structure (Rs. 30 per trade)
• Zero fund transfer and withdrawal charges
• Strategy Builder discounts
• Preferential MTF and margin pledge rates

Why the difference?

Feature access is granted instantly through your account settings as they are already built in. But pricing changes require system-wide coordination across trading, billing, and settlement systems to ensure accurate charge calculations. Hence, a day delay in pricing activation. This prevents mid-day pricing conflicts and ensures seamless billing. So, you can start using advanced tools immediately after activation, but new pricing benefits will apply to trades executed from the next trading day onwards.
