At the close on Friday, 23 October 2026, HDFC AMC options were pricing a move of ±₹45.35 by the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry — a range of ₹2,204.65 to ₹2,295.35 against a closing price of ₹2,250.00. The figure is the at-the-money straddle at the ₹2,250 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.

The heaviest put position on the chain is at ₹2,300 with 1,70,700 contracts, and the heaviest call position at ₹2,300 with 2,16,900 contracts. Open interest describes where positions have been built; it is not a commitment by anyone to defend a price.
