Why is the error "The difference between the limit price and trigger price for SL orders is over the exchange permissible range" displayed?

The NSE circular for Equity (PDF), F&O (PDF) and Currency Derivative Segment (CDS) (PDF) specifies that if the difference between the trigger price and the limit price in Stop Loss - Limit (SL-L) orders exceeds the allowed limit, they will be rejected for all stock F&O, currency F&O and index F&O contracts. This rule applies to both new orders and modifications made to existing SL-L orders.

The allowed limit for each instrument is calculated using a specific formula that takes into account the trigger price, X% and a minimum absolute range (in ₹) based on the type of instrument. To learn more about the calculation of the permissible range, refer to the above-mentioned circulars.

What does the error "The order was cancelled by the exchange because the price is outside the current allowed limit price protection range" mean?
Why is the error "Trigger price can't be higher than price" or "Trigger price can't be lesser than price" displayed while I place a stop-loss order?
