The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has placed four stocks under the Futures and Options (F&O) ban for the trading session on April 16, 2025. These stocks have exceeded 95% of the market-wide position limit (MWPL) and are therefore not available for fresh positions in F&O contracts.
Here is the list of securities currently under the F&O ban:
- BSOFT (Birlasoft Ltd)
- Hindustan Copper Ltd (HINDCOPPER)
- Manappuram Finance Ltd (MANAPPURAM)
- National Aluminium Company Ltd (NALCO)
Traders and investors should note that fresh positions in F&O contracts for these stocks are not permitted until the open interest drops below the prescribed threshold. Existing positions can still be squared off.
The F&O ban is a regulatory measure by NSE to prevent excessive speculation and maintain market stability in these counters.
