F&O ban list: The National Stock Exchange (NSE) banned trading in one stock on Tuesday, February 11, in the futures and options (F&O) segment, as it exceeded 95 per cent of the market-wide position limit (MWPL).
However, the stock will be available for trading in the cash market.
The NSE updates the list of securities in the F&O ban for trade every day.
Manappuram Finance Ltd is the only stock on the NSE's F&O ban list on February 11.
The National Stock Exchange said the derivative contracts in this stock crossed 95 per cent of the market-wide position limit and have been placed in the stock exchange's ban period.
“All clients/members shall trade in the derivative contracts of said security only to decrease their positions through offsetting positions. Any increase in open positions shall attract appropriate penal and disciplinary action,” the NSE statement said.
No new positions are allowed when the stock exchanges place F&O contracts in a particular stock in the ban period.
