OI Buildup Pattern

The open‑interest (OI) for the current expiry shows a neutral buildup, with both price and total OI flat at the moment. A neutral buildup implies that neither long‑side accumulation nor short‑side accumulation is dominant; traders are holding existing positions rather than adding new ones. Consequently, the market exhibits a balanced stance with no clear directional bias emerging from the OI profile.

Put‑Call Ratio

The put‑call ratio (PCR) stands at 0.667, marginally higher than yesterday’s 0.622, indicating a modest increase in put‑option interest relative to call‑option interest. This level suggests that the options market remains mildly bearish‑biased but is moving toward a more neutral stance.

Futures OI

Futures open interest is unchanged at zero for this expiry, reflecting no new participation in the futures segment. The flat futures OI signals that market participants are not augmenting directional exposure via futures contracts, reinforcing the neutral positioning observed in the options market.

Data Summary

For this expiry, total OI is 361,875 contracts, with put OI at 241,375, while the spot price remains unchanged at ₹5,190.
