The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has placed 10 stocks on the Futures and Options (F&O) ban list for Monday, January 20. This decision was made because these stocks exceeded 95% of the Market-Wide Position Limit (MWPL), a threshold set to prevent excessive speculation and market volatility.
Stocks in the Ban List Today
The following stocks are on the F&O ban list as of January 20:
- Aarti Industries
- Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail
- Angel One
- Bandhan Bank
- Can Fin Homes
- Hindustan Copper
- Kalyan Jewellers India
- L&T Finance
- Manappuram Finance
- RBL Bank
These stocks are currently restricted for F&O trading until their position falls below the MWPL limit.
Stocks are banned in the F&O segment to control excessive speculation and protect investors from potential losses caused by high volatility. The F&O ban ensures that market movements remain stable and prevents traders from taking overly risky positions in these stocks.
The F&O ban list serves as a safeguard against market instability by limiting speculative trading in high-risk stocks. While these stocks are under restrictions in the F&O market, investors can still trade them in the cash segment. Keeping an eye on updates from the NSE is crucial for traders to plan their strategies effectively.
