Two weeks ago, India’s securities regulators raised the position limit on equity index derivatives from US$60 million (set in March 2020) to US$900 million per contract, responding to increasing market demand.

This announcement followed news earlier this year, which saw India’s economy continue to grow, driving widening spreads between government bond yields and overnight indexed swaps (OIS). The five-year OIS rate (MIBOR) saw a notable decline since April but has recently begun to recover.
These shifts have boosted global interest in the Indian derivatives market, attracting major trading firms such as Jane St Group, Optiver BV, and Citadel Securities LLC to the country’s thriving financial landscape.
