There is a periodic revision of lot sizes for securities that are in the derivatives market, done by exchanges to maintain their contract value

So basically, if a security falls too much during a stipulated period, then its lot size is revised on the upside to bring back the contract value

Similarly, a security that goes significantly up in a short interval, its lot size gets reduced in the immediate lot revision schedule to bring down the contract value

In the latest lot size revision, National Stock Exchange (NSE) on April said it halved the lot size for trading derivatives contracts for the Nifty 50 index to 25

Lot sizes of Nifty Financial Services or FINNIFTY has been cut from 40 to 25, and that of Nifty Midcap Select or MIDCPNIFTY has been cut from 75 to 50

The lot size of contracts of Nifty Bank or BANKNIFTY has been left unchanged at 15.

Of the total 182 stocks with contracts, the lot size of 128 stocks has remained unchanged.

Out of the 54 stocks with changes, 42 stocks will have reduced lot size effective from 26 April, for expiry in May and beyond.

For 6 stocks, the lot size has been increased from the current levels. This set of changes will become effective from 26 April for expires in July and beyond. It is important to note that May and June contracts will maintain the current market lots.

The remaining 6 stocks in the set of 54 stocks with changes will see a decrease in the lot size. The change for this set will take effect on April 26 for expiries in July and beyond.

Capital Requirement: A change in lot size directly affects the capital required to trade a derivative contract. If the lot size decreases, traders with limited capital may find it easier to participate in the market, as they can trade smaller contract sizes. Conversely, an increase in lot size may require traders to allocate more capital to maintain their trading positions, potentially limiting participation for smaller investors.

Liquidity: Lot size changes can impact the liquidity of derivative contracts. A decrease in lot size may attract more traders to participate, potentially increasing liquidity and reducing bid-ask spreads. Conversely, a rise in lot size may lead to decreased liquidity, making it harder for traders to enter and exit positions at desired prices.

Risk Exposure: Lot size changes alter the exposure of traders to underlying assets. A smaller lot size reduces the exposure per contract, allowing traders to manage risk more granularly. On the other hand, a larger lot size increases exposure, potentially amplifying both gains and losses. Traders need to adjust their risk management strategies accordingly.
