Expiry & contract migration

How open interest shifted across expiries

Expiry Latest OI 1-Day OI Change
27 Oct 74.90 L shares -1.03 Cr
23 Nov 7.45 Cr shares +1.24 Cr
29 Dec 6.82 L shares +1.03 L

The front expiry lost OI while later expiries gained OI, confirming contract migration. About 90.9% of aggregate OI sat beyond the front expiry. This is an expiry-structure observation, not a directional signal by itself.

What to monitor next

  • Whether aggregate futures OI expands or contracts alongside the next price move.
  • Whether the WittyTrades F&O/Cash Participation Ratio remains elevated or normalises.
  • Whether Shares Traded per Trade moves materially above or below its recent baseline.
  • Whether delivery participation holds above or below the recent 3-session average of 54.2%.
  • Whether later-expiry OI continues to absorb positions from the front contract as expiry approaches.

Higher Shares Traded per Trade can flag larger-ticket participation, but exchange trade-count data does not identify the buyer or seller category. The F&O/Cash Participation Ratio measures participation intensity and does not by itself distinguish directional trading, hedging or arbitrage.

Why is Infosys share price falling on 27 October 2026?

Infosys Limited shares declined by 0.26% today, settling at ₹1,163.00 after moving between an intraday high of ₹1,165.80 and a low of ₹1,129.30 from a previous close of ₹1,166.00. The stock opened lower at ₹1,151.95, reflecting a gap-down of 1.20%.

The broader market and sector benchmarks mirrored the modest downward trend, as the Nifty slipped 0.02% and the Nifty IT sector index dropped 0.26%, aligning closely with Infosys's intraday performance. Despite today's minor correction, the company's multi-session trend remains positive, marked by a 2.86% return over the past 5 trading days and a 16.28% gain over the past 20 trading days.

On the corporate front, Infosys announced the successful implementation of Syngenta's global SAP S/4HANA transformation for its Crop Protection business, creating a unified digital core across 80 countries. While this operational milestone highlights ongoing enterprise wins, today's muted price movement appears largely driven by consolidation and positioning following recent gains rather than a direct reaction to the announcement.

2.01 crore shares traded by 27 October 2026 · 03:30 PM IST. This compares with a 20-day average daily volume of 1.60 crore shares (1.26 times). The five-day average daily volume was 2.16 crore shares. Separately, the NSE report for 27 October 2026 showed 1.18 crore shares delivered, representing 58.61% of that day’s traded volume. The same report recorded 242,235 trades.

Likely Reason
Consolidation after recent gains alongside broad IT sector weakness

The stock experienced a minor pullback of 0.26% amid heavy cash volume and high delivery participation following a strong multi-week rally, tracking minor weakness in the Nifty IT sector.
