At the close on Friday, 23 October 2026, Avenue Supermarts options were pricing a move of ±₹59.90 by the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry — a range of ₹3,097.80 to ₹3,217.60 against a closing price of ₹3,157.70. The figure is the at-the-money straddle at the ₹3,150 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 ₹3,400, ₹242.30 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 ₹3,600 with 2,69,250 contracts, and the heaviest call position at ₹3,600 with 9,03,000 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 21.52% for the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry. Realised volatility for Avenue Supermarts is not yet available for comparison.

This page is a record of where Avenue Supermarts's chain finished on Friday, 23 October 2026, not a live feed — the next reading follows tomorrow's close.
