OI Buildup Activity

During the latest reporting window, fresh call OI accumulates at the ₹500 strike (+50 k contracts), followed by the ₹495 strike (+36 k) and the ₹490 strike (+12.6 k), indicating that option writers are adding exposure near the upper end of the anticipated range. On the put side, new open interest appears at the ₹480 strike (+29.4 k), the ₹470 strike (+21 k) and the ₹485 strike (+12.6 k), reflecting a parallel buildup of downside protection. The symmetry of these additions points to a balanced positioning strategy among market makers, with no single direction overwhelmingly favored.
