Info Edge (India) Limited Open Interest & PCR Analysis

OI Buildup Pattern

The equity‑options market shows a neutral buildup, as the spot price remains unchanged at ₹1190 while open interest is flat, indicating neither a pronounced long nor short accumulation today overall across exchanges. Call open interest stands at 2,589,950 contracts, whereas put open interest totals 1,441,550 contracts, reflecting a modest skew toward calls but without a decisive directional bias reflecting current market sentiment nuances. Since both price and total OI are unchanged, the market appears to be in a hold‑pattern, with participants awaiting new information before expanding either side of the book while they monitor corporate disclosures.

Put-Call Ratio

The put‑call ratio sits at 0.557, up from yesterday’s 0.534, indicating a slight increase in put demand relative to calls hinting at a risk appetite. This modest rise in PCR suggests a marginal tilt toward defensive positioning, though the level remains well below one, implying calls still dominate the market but well under historic highs.

Futures OI

Futures open interest registers zero change, showing flat participation in the derivative segment for this expiry suggesting traders are on standby. The absence of new futures positions reinforces the overall neutral stance observed in the options book, with traders likely adopting a wait‑and‑see approach maintaining a balanced risk profile.

Data Summary

Key takeaway: total open interest is unchanged at 4,031,500 contracts, underpinning the current equilibrium between buying and selling pressure.
