Meanwhile, no stock remains under the F&O ban for the Monthly expiry.
Ahead of the Nifty's Weekly expiry on July 7, 2026, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) has no stock placed under the Futures and Options (F&O) trading ban:
This restriction is enforced when the open interest in the stock crosses 95% of the market-wide position limit (MWPL). While fresh derivative positions are disallowed, the stock continues to be available for trading in the cash market.
The stock under the F&O ban for July 7, 2026, is Nil.
A stock enters the Futures & Options (F&O) ban list on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) when the open interest in its derivative contracts crosses 95% of the Market-Wide Position Limit (MWPL). This measure is designed to control excessive speculation and ensure smooth market functioning.
During the ban:
This mechanism is especially important during periods of high volatility—such as contract expiry weeks—to prevent sharp price swings and maintain market stability.
Nifty 50 Futures & Options Weekly contracts expire every Tuesday of the month. If Tuesday happens to be a trading holiday, the expiry is shifted to the previous trading day. Settlement for all contracts is based on the closing price on the day of expiry.
For convenience, some trading platforms display Monthly contracts under the “monthly” tab during expiry week. This is purely a technical arrangement and does not change the actual expiry rules.
