Expiry & contract migration

How open interest shifted across expiries

Expiry Latest OI 1-Day OI Change
23 Nov 7.10 Cr shares -39.02 L
29 Dec 9.46 L shares +62,800
25 Jan 64,500 shares +13,000

The front expiry lost OI while later expiries gained OI, confirming contract migration. About 1.4% 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 57.6%.
  • 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 rising on 30 October 2026?

Infosys Limited (INFY) shares advanced 3.36% on Thursday, closing at ₹1,185.00 after moving between an intraday low of ₹1,147.90 and a high of ₹1,185.00. The stock traded near the top of its daily range.

The broader market participated in the positive momentum, with the benchmark Nifty gaining 0.51% and the Nifty IT sector index rising 2.32%. Infosys outperformed both the broader market and its sectoral benchmark during the session, building on a 20-day return of 19.20% and a 5-day return of 2.70%.

On the corporate front, Infosys announced the expansion of its Pocharam Development Center in Hyderabad on October 30, 2026, adding a new 1.1 million sq. ft. software development block designed to support AI, Cloud, and cybersecurity capabilities. While this expansion highlights ongoing infrastructure scaling, today's price movement reflects broader IT sector strength alongside company-specific buying interest rather than a direct same-day reaction to the facility announcement.

1.30 crore shares traded by 30 October 2026 · 03:30 PM IST. This compares with a 20-day average daily volume of 1.69 crore shares (0.77 times). The five-day average daily volume was 2.18 crore shares. Separately, the NSE report for 30 October 2026 showed 75.75 lakh shares delivered, representing 58.13% of that day’s traded volume. The same report recorded 184,733 trades.

Likely Reason
Sector strength and positive price momentum

The stock advanced alongside a strong performance in the Nifty IT sector index and positive medium-term momentum, supported by healthy cash delivery participation.
