GTT validity rules on Kite

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

A GTT (Good Till Triggered) order on Zerodha Kite is valid for one year from the date of placement on equity and only until contract expiry on F&O, after which it auto-cancels; it is not a true exchange order but a conditional instruction stored on Zerodha’s own servers that fires a single regular limit order to the exchange when your trigger price is touched. The validity rules differ by segment, the trigger fires only once, and the account is capped at 500 active GTTs. Understanding these rules matters because a GTT a trader assumes is “always on” can lapse silently, and a stop-loss set through a GTT carries a broker-server dependency that a resting SL order at the exchange does not.
