Sensex Monthly Expiry: No Stocks are Under F&O Ban on April 30, 2026

Market participants are gearing up for the upcoming Sensex Monthly expiry, with the stock exchange imposing restrictions on select securities in the derivatives segment as part of its regular monitoring mechanism. 

On April 30, 2026, there are no stocks to be placed under the futures and options (F&O) trading ban. This action follows the breach of market-wide position limits, a regulatory measure to ensure market stability. 

Sensex Monthly Expiry: No Stocks Under F&O Ban 

Ahead of the Monthly expiry, there are no stocks to be placed under the F&O trading ban. The restriction has been imposed after the stock crossed 95% of the market-wide position limit (MWPL). 

While fresh positions are not allowed in the futures and options segment for the stock, it continues to remain available for trading in the cash market.

What is Sensex Monthly Expiry? 

Sensex Monthly options contracts expire on the last Thursday of every month. In cases where Thursday is a trading holiday, the expiry is shifted to the previous trading day. 

Settlement occurs at the regular market closing time unless otherwise specified by the exchange. Similarly, if the final Thursday of the expiry cycle is a holiday, contracts expire on the preceding trading session. 

Conclusion 

There are no stocks in the F&O ban list which underscores the importance of monitoring position limits. Investors should remain vigilant about regulatory announcements and stock price movements during such periods.
