Derivatives contracts expiry days now limited to Tuesdays or Thursdays

 

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), on Monday, announced that it will limit the expiries of all equity derivatives contracts to two days per week, either Tuesdays or Thursdays, starting next month. This move is aimed at curbing hyper-activity on expiry days and reducing concentration risk in the market.

 

In March, Sebi had proposed these changes following instances of frequent switches by exchanges on expiry days.

 

As per Sebi's circular issued on Monday, every exchange will be allowed to retain one weekly benchmark index options contract on their chosen day (either Tuesday or Thursday). However, exchanges must now seek prior approval from the regulator to modify the settlement day of their derivatives contracts. Sebi has asked stock exchanges to submit their proposals by June 15.

Motilal Oswal Financial Services on BSE stock price

 

Future & Options (F&O) regulations have been beneficial for BSE with respect to a rise in non-expiry trading activity, leading to improvement in premium turnover. Decline in notional turnover boosted the profitability with lower regulatory costs. Increased member participation, colocation monetization, and sustained momentum in premium turnover will be key growth drivers for BSE. However, the stock is trading above the brokerage firm’s target price of ₹2,533 (adjusted to bonus issue).
