The revision will take effect from December 28; for 83 securities it would be for all month series, while for the rest 23, only farther month contracts – i.e. March 2008 series, would be considered for revision.
The lot size has been revised to meet SEBI guidelines, which prescribe a minimum value of Rs 2 lakh for a contract.
