Key Strike Levels

The open‑interest (OI) map shows a pronounced concentration at the 2,000 ₹ call and the 1,860 ₹ put strikes, each holding roughly 1,000 contracts, establishing a clear resistance ceiling and support floor for the underlying. The implied price corridor, anchored by these clusters, places the market’s near‑term fair value between about 1,860 ₹ and 2,000 ₹. The ATM strike (1,973.4 ₹) sits squarely inside this band, indicating that most market participants expect price movement to remain bounded by the identified resistance and support levels through the September expiry.

OI Buildup Activity

During the latest data window, fresh call OI accrues at the 2,100 ₹ strike (+2,087 ₹ of contracts) and at 1,980 ₹ (+87 ₹), suggesting writers are positioning to benefit from a potential rally toward the 2,000 ₹ ceiling. On the put side, the 1,960 ₹ strike accumulates an additional 58,500 contracts, while the 1,900 ₹ level adds 52,500 contracts, reflecting sellers hedging against downside pressure below the 1,860 ₹ support. The sizable additions at 1,860 ₹ (97,500 contracts) reinforce the view that market makers are defending the established support zone.
