SEBI approves NSE’s proposal to shift weekly derivatives expiry from Thursday to Tuesday, aiming to streamline market operations and reduce expiry-related volatility across exchanges.
In a move aimed at bringing more uniformity to the derivatives market, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has approved the National Stock Exchange’s (NSE) proposal to shift its weekly F&O expiry day from Thursday to Tuesday, according to an ET Now report.
The shift is part of SEBI’s broader effort to eliminate overlapping expiry dates across stock exchanges and reduce speculation-driven volatility. The regulatory body has directed all exchanges to select a single weekly expiry day—either Tuesday or Thursday—for all equity derivatives, including index options, index futures, and stock-specific contracts.
NSE, which currently operates on Thursday expiries, has now officially opted for Tuesday going forward. Exchanges have been instructed to submit their updated expiry calendars to SEBI by June 15, with the new schedule taking effect immediately after.
The change also aligns NSE with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), which already conducts weekly expiries on Tuesdays for its Sensex contracts. This alignment could intensify competition between the two major exchanges, while simplifying expiry tracking for retail traders and reducing fragmentation in the market.
With this move, SEBI aims to streamline expiry patterns, improve liquidity concentration, and minimise sudden bursts of intraday volatility caused by multiple expiry events in a single week.
