Mumbai, Maharashtra, 6th of May 2026 : The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) has once again reinforced its leadership in the equity derivatives segment. The exchange’s performance is assessed on the basis of premium turnover, an industry-standard metric that reflects actual economic activity.

In the first quarter of 2026, NSE demonstrated consistent and robust growth. Its index options market share increased from 66.7 percent in January to 72.1 percent in March, marking a significant rise of 540 basis points. This surge highlights the exchange’s strong underlying growth momentum.
Despite trading being impacted by holidays in April, NSE maintained its firm grip on the market. During this period, it recorded a 62.9 percent market share in index options and an impressive 86.8 percent share in overall futures and options (F&O) premium turnover, underscoring its continued dominance. These figures clearly indicate that NSE not only remains the market leader but is also steadily strengthening its position in the derivatives segment.
