Delivery volume
Also called: deliverable quantity, delivery percentage
The shares bought for delivery into demat accounts in a session, as opposed to those bought and sold within the same day.
A high share of delivery volume suggests more of the trading changed long-term ownership; a low share suggests mostly intraday trading. Exchanges publish it for each share each day.
