At the close on Friday, 23 October 2026, Nippon L I A M options were pricing a move of ±₹27.50 by the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry — a range of ₹895.10 to ₹950.10 against a closing price of ₹922.60. The figure is the at-the-money straddle at the ₹920 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 ₹1,000, ₹77.40 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 ₹1,080 with 1,79,375 contracts, and the heaviest call position at ₹1,040 with 2,31,875 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 35.64% for the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry. Realised volatility for Nippon L I A M is not yet available for comparison.

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