BSE Ltd Sees Surge in Active Put Options with 2,167 Contracts at Rs 3000 Strike

BSE Ltd, a prominent player in the capital markets sector, has emerged as one of the most active stocks today, particularly in the options market. The company’s put options, set to expire on June 26, 2025, have seen significant trading activity. Notably, the put option with a strike price of Rs 2900 recorded 1,879 contracts traded, generating a turnover of Rs 696.23 lakhs, while the Rs 3000 strike price option saw 2,167 contracts traded with a turnover of Rs 1,187.83 lakhs. The open interest for these puts stands at 3,106 and 2,175 contracts, respectively.
Despite the notable activity in the options market, BSE Ltd's stock has underperformed its sector by 0.74%, with a one-day return of -1.91%. The stock is currently trading at Rs 2,948.60, just 1.81% away from its 52-week high of Rs 3,030. It is also trading above its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, indicating a generally positive trend in the longer term. However, investor participation has seen a decline, with delivery volume falling by 7.13% compared to the 5-day average.

In summary, while BSE Ltd's options market activity reflects significant interest, the stock's recent performance indicates a mixed outlook amid fluctuating investor engagement.
