Adjustment of F&O contracts of BANKBARODA

As per NSE circular (WEB), effective June 30th,2023, the strikes of Bank of Baroda options and the base price of the futures contracts will be revised due to extraordinary dividend.

Adjustment for future contracts:
All positions in futures contracts of BANKBARODA will be marked-to-market on the last cum-dividend date i.e. June 28, 2023, based on the daily settlement price of the respective futures contract. Subsequently, open positions will be carried forward at the daily settlement price less Rs. 5.50 (dividend amount) for the respective futures contract.

From June 30, 2023 (ex-dividend date), daily mark-to-market settlement of the futures contracts would continue as per normal procedures.

For example:
Assume you bought 1 lot (5850 quantity) of BANKBARODA futures on June 28, 2023, at Rs. 100 and the daily settlement price at the market close is Rs. 120, you would have made a mark-to-market profit of Rs. 20 per share.

On June 30, 2023, the previous day’s position will be carried forward at Rs. 114.50 (i.e. 120 – 5.50). If the closing price on June 30th is Rs. 118, you’ll make a mark-to-market profit of Rs. 3.50 per share.

Adjustment for options contracts:
The full value of the dividend i.e. Rs. 5.50 will be deducted from all the cum-dividend strike prices on the ex-dividend date. All positions in existing strike prices will continue to exist in the corresponding new adjusted strike prices.

For example:
The strike price of Rs. 120 Call Option will be reduced to Rs. 114.50 on June 30, 2023, and the positions in Rs. 120 Call Option will continue to exist in Rs. 114.50 Call Option.

The lot size of the F&O contracts will not change.
