Quick Summary: F&O Margin Calculator

An F&O Margin Calculator estimates the total capital required to enter a derivatives position in India. In FY 2026-27, SEBI requires both SPAN margin (to cover peak volatility) and Exposure margin (to cover mark-to-market risk), which are dynamically updated by exchanges like NSE and BSE.
