What happens if I quote high price to buy a stock compared to its current market price?

[Jayagopi]

Quoting Higher price than the prevailing market price to buy the shares does not execute the order. Even though the buyers are ready to buy at higher market price the order will be executed only at seller’s quoted price. This Regulation is done by SEBI to avoid Price Manipulation.

[Iswarya V]

If the buyer quotes higher price than the market price, he donot have to wait in queue to buy the stock. His order will be executed immediately only at market price even if he quotes more than the market price.

[Arun Kanderi Ramachandran]

Even if the buyer is ready to buy a stock at the higher market price with respect to current market price , the market doesn’t

execute order. Instead it executes the order at the current seller price , which is regulated by SEBI to prevent price

manipulation of the stocks.
