Brokerage firms Upstox and Zerodha replied to their users that the issue was at the CDSL’s end with respect to TPIN verification failure. “CDSL TPIN services might be down due to which you will not be able to generate a new TPIN for authorising sell orders," Upstox said.
CDSL had introduced electronic delivery instruction slip (e-DIS) verification for investor protection. A trader has to authenticate the transaction with TPIN and OTP at the time of sale of stocks.
