How to find your GTT orders on Kite (web and app)

Sun, 21 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

You find your GTT orders on Kite in the GTT tab on the Orders page, on both Kite web and the Kite app. A GTT (Good Till Triggered) order on Zerodha is stored on Zerodha’s servers, not at the exchange, and Kite gives it a dedicated tab separate from your regular orders and baskets. The GTT tab is where active GTTs wait, where you read their state, and where you modify or delete them. This guide shows the exact path on each platform, explains why a triggered GTT leaves the tab, and points to where the permanent record lives once a GTT has acted.

Why a rejected order does not appear in the order book on Zerodha

Sun, 21 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A rejected order is absent from the Kite order book because Zerodha added a pre-trade validation layer that rejects a non-qualifying order before it is sent to the exchange, and an order that never reached the exchange has no row in the order book; its rejection reason instead appears in the order status notification on Kite. This is the documented behaviour for orders blocked by Zerodha’s own checks, and it is why a trader who rejected an order seconds ago cannot find it under the Orders tab.

Why a triggered GTT is not visible after end of day on Kite

Sun, 21 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A triggered GTT is not visible after end of day on Kite because the trigger converts the GTT into a regular limit order with Day validity, and the exchange cancels any unfilled day order at session close. A GTT (Good Till Triggered) order on Zerodha is stored on Zerodha’s own servers, not at the exchange. The moment the last traded price meets the trigger condition, Zerodha’s server submits a normal limit order to the exchange, and from that instant the GTT stops being a persistent conditional order and starts being an ordinary order with the lifecycle of a single trading day.

How to fix the Order book showing dates instead of quantity on Kite

If the Kite order book is displaying date values in the quantity column (or vice versa), the data is intact server-side; what you are seeing is a client-side column shift in the rendered table.

Market depth view on Kite

Wed, 20 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Market depth on Kite is the 5-level visible order book for a tradable instrument: the top five buy quotes (bids) and the top five sell quotes (asks), each with its aggregate quantity. It is what was historically called “Level 2 data” in the West. Kite renders the depth in a side panel on web and in the quote-screen on the mobile app.

How to open the depth panel

Platform	Open path
Kite web	Click the scrip name in the marketwatch row, or use the keyboard shortcut F12 with a row focused
Kite mobile app	Tap the scrip row; the quote screen shows depth in the lower half

The depth panel updates in real time during market hours.
