At the close on Friday, 23 October 2026, Bajaj Auto options were pricing a move of ±₹196.20 by the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry — a range of ₹9,875.80 to ₹10,268.20 against a closing price of ₹10,072.00. The figure is the at-the-money straddle at the ₹10,100 strike, which is what the options market itself is charging for the move to expiry. It describes the price of that expectation, not a forecast MarketCue makes.

Max pain sits at ₹10,400, ₹328.00 above the closing price — the strike at which the largest value of written options would expire worthless. The heaviest put position on the chain is at ₹10,400 with 95,550 contracts, and the heaviest call position at ₹11,000 with 2,49,900 contracts. Open interest describes where positions have been built; it is not a commitment by anyone to defend a price.

At-the-money implied volatility was 23.14% for the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry. Realised volatility for Bajaj Auto is not yet available for comparison.

This page is a record of where Bajaj Auto's chain finished on Friday, 23 October 2026, not a live feed — the next reading follows tomorrow's close. Figures are derived from the NSE option chain via Upstox; max pain, the implied move, put-call ratio and the volatility comparison are MarketCue's own calculations from that data.
