Frequently Asked Questions about Currency Derivatives Margin

Regulated currency derivatives trading on NSE/BSE allows Indian residents to trade INR pairs (USDINR, EURINR, GBPINR, JPYINR) and specific cross-currency pairs.

Required Margin equals the Nominal Contract Value multiplied by the SPAN percentage, plus an Extreme Loss Margin (ELM), which is generally around 1-2% due to lower currency volatility.

Currency derivatives trading is strictly governed by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA).
