This circular outlines measures to strengthen the equity index derivatives framework for increased investor protection and market stability. Key points include mandating upfront collection of option premiums from buyers, removing calendar spread treatment on expiry days, introducing intraday monitoring of position limits, increasing minimum contract size to Rs. 15-20 lakhs for new index derivatives, allowing only one weekly expiry index derivative per exchange, and levying additional extreme loss margin of 2% on short options expiring that day. These changes aim to address risks from excessive speculative trading in index options nearing expiry, ensure suitability for investors, and promote basic risk management practices. Implementation timelines range from November 2024 to April 2025 for different measures.
