NEW DELHI – The National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange has extended the 2.5% additional surveillance margin on all running and yet-to-be launched turmeric futures contracts till Nov. 12, the exchange said in a circular Monday.
Turmeric futures have been seeing sharp price movements amid firm demand and tight supply conditions. Prices have also risen amid reports of crop damage in key producing regions in Maharashtra. On Monday, the most-active December contract of turmeric rose over 3% to INR 15,180 per 100 kilograms. The contract had hit a four-month high of INR 15,200 per 100 kg earlier in the day. Since Oct. 1, the contract has surged over 21% due to firm demand ahead of festival season.
Exchanges impose additional surveillance margin to curb excessive volatility. The extra margin requires traders to deposit additional funds, which discourage speculations and stabilise prices. End
