Infosys Option Chain, Max Pain & OI
Live Infosys option chain, max pain, open interest and PCR for India's top IT exporter.
Infosys (INFY) is one of India's largest IT-services exporters, and its options are a favourite around quarterly results, when IV spikes and OI shifts sharply ahead of the earnings move. It is a key Nifty IT constituent.
This page covers reading the Infosys option chain, max pain, open interest and PCR — all streamed live and lot-adjusted on Quintal Mind. NSE revises lot sizes periodically, so confirm the current contract specs on your broker terminal.
Reading the Infosys Option Chain
The Infosys option chain lists every available call and put strike for the current expiry on NSE, with last price, volume, open interest, change in OI, implied volatility and bid–ask for each. Infosys options trade with a strike gap of 20 and a lot size of 400.
Quintal Mind streams the Infosys chain live over a compressed WebSocket, so LTP, OI and IV update in real time during market hours instead of the 3-minute delay on the exchange site. The ATM strike is highlighted and the chain is centred on spot so the relevant strikes are always in view.
Infosys Max Pain & Open Interest
Max pain — the strike where the most Infosys options expire worthless — is recalculated live as open interest shifts through the day. The highest call OI strike often acts as resistance and the highest put OI strike as support, and Infosys frequently gravitates toward the max pain level into expiry.
Watching OI change (not just absolute OI) tells you whether positions at a strike are being built or unwound — the difference between fresh conviction and a fading move.
Infosys PCR & Sentiment
The Infosys Put-Call Ratio (PCR), computed from total put OI ÷ total call OI, is a quick sentiment gauge: a high PCR leans bullish (heavy put writing), a low PCR leans bearish (heavy call writing). Quintal Mind shows live PCR alongside the chain so you have context before every trade.
