Shares of BSE Ltd rose 2.40% to ₹2,535.50 in Monday’s early trade, following reports that the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) will not make any immediate changes to the weekly options expiry structure in the derivatives segment.
According to a CNBC-TV18 report, SEBI will continue to analyze derivative trading data between July and September 2025 before deciding on any revisions. The regulator is expected to act only if the review shows heightened or unusual trading activity in the Futures and Options (F&O) segment.
The report also stated that SEBI may consider alternative measures such as removing disincentives related to long-term derivatives, rather than directly altering the weekly expiry framework. This development follows multiple representations received by SEBI from market participants regarding the current expiry schedule.
On August 21, SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey had indicated that the regulator plans to review the tenure of equity derivatives and will issue a consultation paper to explore possible reforms aimed at ensuring market stability.
At the time of reporting, BSE shares were trading at ₹2,535.50, up ₹59.50 from the previous close of ₹2,476. The exchange’s market capitalization stood at ₹1.03 lakh crore, with the stock emerging among the day’s top gainers on the NSE.
