Trouble- Shooting

INDEX
Options trading २
Why am I unable to I sell my options contract? Why is my chart not loading?Why is my order getting rejected due to 'Trading is not allowed in this script due to less liquidity'?
What happens if the option contract is not squared off on the expiry date?

Index options are cash-settled, and the implications are as follows:

Bought Index Options:

  • ITM (In-The-Money) Contracts: STT is 0.125% of the intrinsic value (not the total contract value) and is charged on expiry. Brokerage is also charged on both transactions.
  • OTM (Out-of-The-Money) Contracts: Expire worthless. You lose the entire premium paid. Brokerage is only charged when purchased.

Shorted/Sold Index Options:

  • STT is only charged when initiating the short.No STT on expiry. The trader keeps the premiums based on the option's value.
Why was the settlement price zero for the option position on expiry, although the Last Traded Price (LTP) is not zero?
