Adjustment of F&O contracts of PIDILITIND on account of bonus.

As per the circular, effective from September 23, 2025, the PIDILITIND F&O contracts will be revised based on the bonus adjustment factor.

Calculation of the adjustment factor:

The adjustment factor for a bonus issue of A: B is defined as (A+B)/B. For PIDILITIND, the adjustment factor is (1+1)/1 = 2 since the bonus issue ratio is 1:1.

Adjustment for Options Contracts:

Strike Price: The adjusted strike price is calculated by dividing the old strike price by the adjustment factor.

Lot Size: The adjusted lot size is arrived at by multiplying the old market lot by the adjustment factor. The revised lot size would be 500.

For example:

Assume you hold a position in PIDILITIND 3000 CE. The current lot size is 250. On ex-date, the 3000 CE will be adjusted to 1500 (Strike Price 3000 / Adjustment Factor 2), and the lot size will be adjusted to 500 (Current Lot Size: 250 * Adjustment Factor 2).

Adjustment for Futures Contracts:

Futures base price: The adjusted futures base price is arrived at by dividing the settlement price of the future one day before the ex-date by the adjustment factor.

Futures lot size: The adjusted market lot will be arrived at by multiplying the old market lot by the adjustment factor. The revised market lot would be 500.

For example:

Assume you are holding a position in PIDILITIND SEP FUT and on pre-ex-date (Sep 22, 2025), futures close at 3070, on ex-date, the price will be adjusted to 1535 (Price on pre-ex-date: 3070 / Adjustment Factor: 2)

While the lot size will be adjusted to 500 (Current lot size: 250 * Adjustment Factor: 2).
