SEBI’s new directive, issued on May 27, now allows trading options on commodity futures only if the underlying contracts meet certain criteria on the exchange where they are traded. This includes a significant reduction in the required average daily turnover for agricultural and agri-processed commodities.

Previously, the threshold for launching options in agricultural and agri-processed commodities was set at Rs 200 crore. SEBI has lowered this requirement to Rs 100 crore, responding to feedback from market participants and recommendations from its Commodity Derivatives Advisory Committee.

This regulatory change aims to make it easier for exchanges to introduce options contracts for a wider range of commodities, potentially increasing market participation and the variety of commodities traded.

Despite recent fluctuations, MCX shares have surged 178.5% over the past year, highlighting its strong market position. However, the stock has seen an 8.6% decline over the last month, illustrating recent market challenges.
