At the close on Friday, 23 October 2026, Reliance Industries options were pricing a move of ±₹19.50 by the Tuesday, 27 October 2026 expiry — a range of ₹1,170.50 to ₹1,209.50 against a closing price of ₹1,190.00. The figure is the at-the-money straddle at the ₹1,190 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 ₹1,200, ₹10.00 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 ₹1,160 with 59,55,000 contracts, and the heaviest call position at ₹1,200 with 97,53,000 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 19.53%, against realised volatility of 16.09% over Reliance Industries's last 30 sessions — a spread of +3.44 points. That realised figure sits in the 15th percentile of the last two years, which ranged from 9.94% to 31.24%. Both figures are stated as measured; what they imply about whether options are worth buying or writing is a judgement for the reader, not this page.

This page is a record of where Reliance Industries'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. MarketCue is not a registered investment adviser, research analyst or broker under SEBI regulations, and nothing here is a recommendation to buy or sell any security.
