Gold Silver Reports – India’s largest exchange plans to start extended trading subject to approval from the regulator some time in October, it said in an email to clients. The bourse shared a “skeletal framework” for trading till 11.55 p.m.—nearly seven hours more than now.
The National Stock Exchange Ltd. has asked its clients to get ready for late-evening derivatives trading from October.
According to the framework:
There shall be two trading sessions with a break of about 60-90 minutes.
The first session would be between 9:15 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
The First Session
The exchange would allow trading to continue from the previous day’s second (evening) session. That’s because it doesn’t want its members to settle trades in the night. Moreover, there would be thin trading on most days in the night, said a senior NSE official on condition of anonymity.
Trade modification will be allowed till 4:00 p.m. and all orders outstanding after 3:30 p.m. would be cancelled, as is the case now. More details would follow in a separate circular, the exchange said.
The Second Session
It would extend from 5:00 p.m. to 11:55 p.m. The exchange would issue a separate circular to confirm the timings after getting approval from the regulator. The second session will start with fresh orders.
On the last day of the contract— the last Thursday of the month—next month’s contracts would be eligible to trade.
The exchange will allow trade modification till 11:55 p.m. All outstanding orders after that would be cancelled.
The exchange will allow all trade records to continue in next morning’s session.
Extended trading will be accompanied by the NSE’s entry into products currently available in commodity derivative exchanges as the regulator has allowed unified exchanges starting October.
