SEBI changed India’s commodity derivatives position-limit framework on 9 September 2026, and the circular took effect immediately. The new SEBI commodity position limits double the client-level caps for agricultural commodities to 2% of deliverable supply for Broad commodities, 1% for Narrow commodities and 0.5% for sensitive commodities. SEBI also capped the daily monetary penalty for a client-level breach: ₹200,000 where the violation exceeds 2% of the prescribed limit, and ₹10,000 where it is up to 2%.
