It looks like the incentive scheme is ultimately working at least as of now. Last week on 3rd Novembar 2011, the derivatives segment of BSE recorded largest ever turnover of 759.24 crore (about 1520 crore both sides).
The sensex futures turnover was Rs.625 crore, highest ever since launch of the vastly tracked Indian index.
Total 128 members put trades in derivatives segment. It is noticeable that since last few days, the turnover of BSE derivatives segment has been rising 50-75 crores rupees everyday.
Whiile on the other side the derivatives market leader NSE is way too up. It records average of atleast 1.20 lakh crore volume daily.USEFUL LINKS:
