Instead of adding F&O contracts, NSE and SEBI should reduce the lot sizes of existing contracts, so as to increase liquidity and Hedging Power for retail investors.

And I’ve also heard that they are changing lot size for Nifty and are changing it from 75 to 50, is it true ? If yes, then when will it come into action and will we get any advantage from such changes ?
Yes. The lot size for monthly expiry F&O contracts for Nifty will be revised to 50 from July expiry onwards.
While the lot size for weekly expiry contracts will remain 75 and will be revised to 50 from August weekly expiry onwards.
