SEBI may shift index options to fortnightly expiry

SEBI is thinking about moving index option expiries from weekly to fortnightly if the current volume frenzy doesn’t cool down. This is partly in response to the Jane Street case and rising concerns around retail losses.

Despite earlier steps to control F&O activity, volumes are still hitting new highs. Weekly expiries seem to have turned the market into a trading loop.

Not confirmed yet, but this might be on the table soon. What do you guys think?
