Comment on Margins- 2 Exit orders for 1 position

Hi Nithin,

I do not understand the logic of asking for margins in the case of options. Say I buy, a call of nifty at 5900 and sell a call of nifty at 6000, I should not need any extra margin money for the sell call, because it is covered with the buy call. Can you please explain why would I require additional margin in this case?

Thanks,
Ashvin
