Sebi approves NSE's expiry day change to Tuesday, BSE to Thursday

Sebi has approved NSE's proposal to shift its weekly expiry day for equity derivatives from Thursday to Tuesday. To avoid simultaneous expiries, BSE Sensex expiry will move to Thursday, effective September 1, 2025. This decision, prompted by a Sebi circular, aims to reduce market volatility and standardize expiry days across exchanges, following consultations and recommendations from the SMAC.
