Delivery volume percentage on the Kite marketwatch

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

Delivery volume percentage on a Kite marketwatch scrip row is the share of total day’s volume that resulted in actual delivery to demat accounts, expressed as a percentage. It distinguishes delivery (CNC) trades that result in demat credit from intraday (MIS) trades that are squared off the same day.

How the metric is defined

For any equity scrip on a given trading day, NSE and BSE report:

Total traded quantity. The aggregate of all buy and sell trades, divided by 2.
Deliverable quantity. The subset where the buyer chose CNC (carry to demat) and the seller delivered from holdings.

Delivery volume percentage = (Deliverable quantity / Total traded quantity) x 100.

Volume indicator on indices: limitations (Kite)

Volume on indices is not a directly traded metric. Indices like Nifty 50 or Sensex are computed from constituent stocks; the index itself doesn’t trade. So a volume indicator on an index chart shows zero or is unavailable.

This article explains the limitation and the available workarounds.

Why index volume is zero

Indices are mathematical aggregates of constituent stock prices. They are not securities that trade with orderbooks. There is no “volume” in the literal sense.
