SEBI regn. - required or not ?

SampatKumarG
I want to use kite connect api’s and develop a small python program which will chk the price of a scrip (say Infy). If it is 1200rs, then my program will place the order to buy.

I am not clear and would like to be sure that do we need to register such programs with sebi seeking permissions ?

Also, would like to know under what circumstances - sebi regn. is required ?

Awaiting yr response.

    As per the latest SEBI's Algo trading framework starting from 1st April 2026, individuals can automate strategies up to 10 orders per second (per segment per exchange) without requiring exchange registration. However, for algo trading exceeding 10 orders per second, exchange registration will be mandatory. Additionally, a static IP dedicated to the API key will be required for the order place/modify/cancel endpoints. All other API endpoints (WebSocket data, quote data, orderbook, positions, etc.) remain accessible from any IP address. You may refer to this thread for more updates.

    Thanks for yr response.
    If my orders are not exceeding 10 per second, do i still need a static ip to the api key ?

    Static is mandatory for the orders endpoint regardless of order count(i.e., 10 OPS)

    From where can i get the static ip address ?

    @SampatKumarG You can acquire a static IP from an ISP, cloud provider (AWS, GCP, etc.), or VPN/VPC service.
