FINAS system is updated security deposit value as -30,000,000 Naira then in portal system shows Security Deposit as 30,000,000.
Set station operational value as 20,000,000.
Set security deposit percentage as 7.5%.
Then the new security deposit calculates as follows
New Security Deposit = (Station Operational Value * security deposit %) / 100
New Security Deposit = (20,000,000 * 7.5) / 100 = 1,500,000.
Trade Deposit = Actual Security Deposit – New Security Deposit
Trade Deposit = 30,000,000 – 1,500,000 = 28,500,000
The trade deposit amount can be used for placing the orders.
