Why no auto rollover option for futures contracts?

Why do we still have to manually close the current month futures and buy the next month again near expiry? This adds unnecessary costs — double brokerage, slippage, spread losses — and benefits only the broker.

Can Zerodha provide an auto-rollover option for futures positions (just like SIPs or commodity rollovers)? Even a 1-click rollover feature would help a lot.

Requesting @nithin to kindly look into this.
@SEBI_India should also take note — this is a needed reform for retail traders.

Even if we provide spread order one has to incur all the costs, need to enter next month at higher premium only, govt/exchange costs, brok everything will be there, only thing is slippage can be reduced, will check with team on this.
