RBL Bank, and Indiabulls Housing Finance are the three stocks that continue to be under the F&O ban list by the stock exchange, whereas, Delta Corp, that was part of the ban in the previous days, is out from the stock ban list for today. The NSE updates the list of securities in F&O ban for trade everyday.

The derivative contracts in the mentioned securities have crossed 95% of the market-wide position limit and are therefore have been currently put in the ban period by the stock exchange, said NSE.

“It is hereby informed that all clients/members shall trade in the derivative contracts of said securities only to decrease their positions through offsetting positions," the stock exchange said. "Any increase in open positions shall attract appropriate penal and disciplinary action," NSE added.

No fresh positions are allowed for any of the F&O contracts in that particular stock when it is under the F&O ban period. The MWPL (market-wide position limit) is set by the stock exchanges which is the maximum number of contracts that can be open at any time (Open Interest), therefore, the F&O contracts of that stock enter a ban period if the open interest crosses 95% of the MWPL.

Meanwhile, stock markets are set to remain on edge on Tuesday amid elevated price pressures and concern that monetary tightening in a range of nations portends more losses. SGX Nifty, Singapore Nifty that is the Indian Nifty traded in Singapore Stock Exchange, indicates a muted start for the Indian stock market.
