Capital requirement to keep positional trade of NIFTY Future and avoid any penalty as per new F&O margin rules?

F&O

Hello Friends,

I am very confused about the new F&O Margin requirement rules, and finding out several F&O penalties questions poping up in this forum! Can anyone of you tell me how much available capital I will need to keep the positional trade of NIFTY in order to avoid any NSE or SEBI penalties?

Let’s say I have Rs.80,000 available capital! Will that be sufficient to keep the positional trade of NIFTY and not have any penalties? CMP of NIFTY is around 11300, and my available capital Rs.80000!

Also, if possible, can you explain how penalties are calculated?

Thank You!

As per the margin calculator, for where NIFTY is at present, you’ll need around 67-70K for 1 lot.

Assume after you take the position, you have Rs 10000 in your account. If the position goes against you & your MTM loss is more than Rs 10000, you will have to bring in more funds cover for the loss. If you don’t margin penalty will be levied and your position will be squared off by the RMS team.
