NSE’s latest filing shows weekly options revenue standing at ₹42 per ₹100 of total, with non‑weekly options accounting for ₹58 per ₹100.
The two‑digit decline in equity‑options market share—2‑3% versus the 40‑50% drop analysts expected after the weekly‑expiry cut—suggests the exchange’s liquidity base remains resilient.
Chairperson Srinivas Injeti highlighted the Electronic Gold Receipts (EGR) initiative, noting that a three‑year framework could unlock significant revenue streams if GST and ecosystem hurdles are cleared.
CEO Ashishkumar Chauhan underscored NSE’s pivot toward data monetisation, citing its 32 years of tick‑by‑tick data as a unique competitive edge that could diversify earnings beyond transaction fees.
Regulatory comments from Injeti stressed that market‑impact measures are not revenue‑centric, but designed to safeguard price discovery. The exchange remains focused on expanding non‑transaction opportunities, with electricity futures and EGR slated to boost its trading‑based income in the coming quarters.
