dear
dusant,
why
is the leverage ratios that low having all that liquidity and
hedge-ability?
that
is my main concern.
and
i think whatever the trending in india or anywhare else that margin
loss when compared to as US market of 5% requirement cannot be compensated
and there is no way to earn more there with same size of investment and
risk bearing. no offense.
thanks for the information.

Dr Torque,
India is just a growing market
right now. At present we have a list of 89 stock and index derivatives. Of
them 34 have been recently introduced.
There are another 23 being
added from 12 May, and 13 more from 27 May.
So we are looking forward to a
good "hedgeable" market.
The stock options are not too
liquid, but the futures are. The Index options are extremely
liquid.
The leveraging available for
futures contracts is roughly on a 20 to 30% margin, depending on the
volatility of the future. That is, a person can take a position worth
Rs.1,000,000.00 by paying a margin of Rs. 300,000.00.
Best Wishes.
