Section C (4 Mark)

Mr. XYZ is bullish on Nifty when it is at 4191.10. He sells a Put option with a strike price of Rs. 4100 at a premium of Rs. 170.50 expiring on 31st July. If the Nifty index stays above 4100, he will gain the amount of premium as the Put buyer won’t exercise his option. In case the Nifty falls below 4100, Put buyer will exercise the option and the Mr. XYZ will start losing money. If the Nifty falls below 3929.50, which is the breakeven point, Mr. XYZ will lose the premium and more depending on the extent of the fall in Nifty.
