Exchange reviews on a periodic basis the contract size/value of derivative contracts based on prescribed minimum value of INR 200,000 as per SEBI circular no. SEBI/DNPD/CIR-20/2004/02/23 dated February 23, 2004.   It is proposed to carry out revision of market lots for derivatives contract as given below:
