Revision in stock F&O contracts’ lot size from May 2022 expiry

Blog | F&O

NSE will be revising the lot size of 66 stock F&O contracts from May 2022.

Why is this revision happening?
SEBI mandates that the contract value of all F&O contracts remain between ₹5 - ₹10 Lakhs. Hence after NSE’s periodic review (every 6 months), if the contract value of stock F&O contracts is beyond this range, there is an upward or downward revision in its lot size.

As per this revision, here are the 12 stock F&O contracts whose lot size will reduce from May 2022 expiry date onwards:
