Synopsis: SAIL and Sammaan Capital remain in the NSE F&O ban for April 13, 2026, as speculative pressures increase. Five major stocks, led by PG Electroplast and Kaynes Technology, have surpassed the 95% MWPL threshold. This indicates a likely entry into the ban list when trading resumes on April 15.
Shares of SAIL and Sammaan Capital stayed on the NSE’s derivatives ban on Monday, while five key stocks including PG Electroplast and Kaynes Technology went past important speculative limits. This suggests a high chance of these stocks entering the restricted list when trading resumes Wednesday after the Dr. Ambedkar Jayanti holiday.
Market-Wide Position Limit (MWPL) is a regulatory safety valve which places a limit on the number of outstanding derivative contracts that a particular stock may have so as to prevent over-speculation. The NSE places an F&O ban when the sum of Open Interest (OI) of all traders reaches 95% of this threshold, and no new positions can be made until the OI decreases to less than 80%.
PG Electroplast leads the risk list at 134.33%, then comes Kaynes Technology (117.93%), Jubilant Foodworks (111.96%), Exide Industries (102.38%), and Indian Energy Exchange (100.29%)-far much above the 95% ban trigger. The borderline cases such as Inox Wind (95.66%), RVNL (94.70%), and Dixon Technologies (91.64%) are still in the high risk zone, which is an indication of an imminent extension of the ban list in the new sessions.
When there is a ban, new positions are not allowed; only position squaring (closing existing trades) is allowed. Violations incur a penalty of 1% of the increased position value (Minimum ₹5,000; Maximum ₹1,00,000). The ban is not lifted until the OI decreases below the 80% mark, which guarantees a significant decrease in the speculative volatility.
About F&O Ban
The NSE F&O ban mechanism is a SEBI-required risk management tool applied to the futures and options segment. It stops further speculative position buildup in stocks where total open interest reaches alarmingly high levels compared to the exchange-set market-wide position limit.
