OI Buildup Pattern

The current open‑interest (OI) profile shows a neutral buildup for the June‑2026 expiry. Both the spot price and the total OI are flat, indicating that neither long‑side nor short‑side positions are expanding materially. A neutral buildup suggests that market participants are largely holding existing positions rather than initiating new directional bets.

Put‑Call Ratio

The put‑call ratio (PCR) stands at 0.594, down from 0.668 the previous day. This lower PCR reflects a relative increase in call buying or a reduction in put buying, but the ratio remains below 1, signalling that call‑option activity still exceeds put‑option activity.

Futures OI

Futures open interest is unchanged at zero for the current expiry, implying no net addition or reduction of futures contracts. A flat futures OI underscores a lack of fresh directional exposure through the futures market.

Data Summary

The key metric for this expiry is the total OI of 7,052,000 contracts, with call OI at 4,191,200, indicating that call positions dominate the open‑interest landscape.
