To curb excessive speculation in the stock market, Sebi is tightening the rules for futures and options (F&O) trading. Starting November 20th, the minimum amount needed to invest in index F&O contracts will increase significantly. Currently, investors can participate with as little as Rs 5-10 lakh. This threshold will be raised to Rs 15 lakh, making these contracts less accessible to smaller investors. Sebi will also periodically adjust this minimum investment amount to ensure it stays between Rs 15 lakh and Rs 20 lakh.
