BSE shares fell 6% in today’s trade after reports surfaced that SEBI may be considering new measures to regulate options trading. As of 11:28 AM, the shares were trading 6.19% lower at Rs 2,473.00.
According to CNBC-TV18, the regulator is exploring a formula-based approach to link options leverage with cash market positions. SEBI may also deliberate on additional steps aimed at reducing retail participation in the derivatives segment. If implemented, this could boost cash market activity but impact overall options liquidity.
BSE shares opened at ₹2,640 and hit a high of ₹2,644 before slipping to a low of ₹2,437.70 during the session. The stock remains well below its 52-week high of ₹3,030, though it still trades far above its 52-week low of ₹705.
