Reliance Industries Option Chain, Max Pain & OI
Live Reliance Industries option chain, max pain, open interest and PCR for India's largest stock.
Reliance Industries is India's largest company by market cap and one of the most heavily traded single-stock F&O underlyings. Its options see strong liquidity around earnings and corporate announcements, making OI and max pain especially informative.
This page covers reading the Reliance option chain, max pain, open interest and PCR — all streamed live and lot-adjusted on Quintal Mind. Lot sizes and strike gaps are periodically revised by NSE, so confirm the current contract specs on your broker terminal.
Reading the Reliance Option Chain
The Reliance 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. Reliance options trade with a strike gap of 10 and a lot size of 500.
Quintal Mind streams the Reliance 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.
Reliance Max Pain & Open Interest
Max pain — the strike where the most Reliance 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 Reliance 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.
Reliance PCR & Sentiment
The Reliance 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.
