you cant do that on intraday...you cannot buy in one exchange and sell in the other....

at both the exchanges you must be even (squared off) both buy/sell positions.. which makes it practically useless to do shorting in one exchange and going long on the other. it's not worth the trouble. only, when you see an opportunity to sell higher your delivery in other exchange, then it makes sense.

you can sell at any exchange (no matter from which u bought at) but u should have delivery of the stock. that happens T+2 i.e. 2 days after you buy it.

so no chance of doing it intraday.

this can be done. this is what is called arbitrage. if the difference is more (more than the commission payable) u may have some gains. u may get further details from some brokers

Yes..This is called arbitrage and it must be done almost simultaneously....if at all an arbitrage opputunity exists the maximum one can make is a mer5 paise...and after brokerage??nothin will be left...Generally arbitrage is used to advantage in forex trading or commodities trading where the prices of the commodities vary from country to country...for example a dozen apples might cost about 500 rs in india...if the same dozen apples cost you 1000 rs( in dollars) in th US the traders then take the arbitrage opputunity(The diff in the price) to thier advantage...practically speaking it wouldnt work in the stock markets..atleast in the Indian stock markets..
