PremiumA total of four stocks have been put under the ban for trade on Wednesday, February 15, 2023 under the futures and options (F&O) segment by the National Stock Exchange (NSE).

Ambuja Cements, Indiabulls Housing Finance, Punjab National Bank (PNB) and Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) stocks continue to be part of the F&O ban list by the stock exchange for today as 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. The NSE updates the list of securities in F&O ban for trade everyday.
“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.
