FAQs

Derivatives: common questions

Still unsure? Ask the desk

Do I need to activate the F&O segment?

Yes. Exchanges require income proof before the derivatives segment is enabled. You can submit it during or after account opening.

How are margins decided?

Margins are prescribed by the exchange and clearing corporation (SPAN plus exposure) and can change with volatility. They are collected up front.

Is F&O suitable for beginners?

Derivatives are leveraged and most individual traders lose money in them, as the SEBI study above shows. Read the risk disclosure documents carefully before trading.
