India regulator proposes options trading rule changes

India's market regulator has put forth proposed modifications to the existing framework governing options contracts. Specifically, the changes aim to refine the process for pre-agreed prices at which these contracts are traded. This initiative seeks to enhance market stability and facilitate smoother trading operations, particularly during periods of heightened market volatility. The proposal, detailed in a paper released on the regulator's website, indicates a proactive approach to managing potential disruptions and ensuring a more resilient options trading environment within the Indian financial markets.
