The proposed rules for futures and options (F&O) trading in securities by capital market regulator SEBI may cause losses to stock markets and brokers. This apprehension has been expressed in a report. SEBI has introduced new rules to protect retail traders from losses.

According to the report, these rules of SEBI will lead to a 30-40 percent decline in the volume of F&O trading. If these measures are implemented, the number of retail investors may decrease.

According to a Jefferies report, SEBI's proposed measures to reduce the number of weekly option contracts from 18 to six may have an impact of about 35% on the industry premium. If the business shifts to the remaining contracts, the overall impact may be reduced by 20-25%. According to the report, NSE's income may decline by 25-30% by FY 2025-26, while the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE)'s income may decline by 15-18%.
