Last Traded Price (LTP)

Tax Glossary Definition

Last Traded Price (LTP)

The Last Traded Price (LTP) represents the price at which the most recent transaction in a stock or other tradable asset occurred during a market session. It reflects the latest exchange of value between buyers and sellers, and it updates continuously as new trades take place. Investors use the LTP to understand the asset’s current market level, observe short-term price changes, and make time-sensitive trading decisions.

Illustration:

Suppose the latest executed trade for shares of ABC Ltd. happened at ₹520. In that case, the LTP is ₹520, regardless of whether earlier trades during the same session were recorded at different prices such as ₹515 or ₹525.
