# NSE sets Dec 30 deadline for Polycab F&O exit, NCLAT stays insolvency

2026-10-12T18:12:19+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk

Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

The National Stock Exchange will remove Polycab India from the equity derivatives segment from 30 December 2026, according to a circular. No new contracts for expiry months will be issued after the existing contracts for October, November and December expire. CNBC-TV18 adds that a 100% margin will be levied on all existing derivative positions from 13 October. Separately, the NCLAT has stayed the 7 October order of the NCLT Ahmedabad Bench that admitted insolvency proceedings against the company. The case, filed by Asier Metals Private Limited, relates to an alleged operational debt of Rs 2.79 crore. The Economic Times reports that the NCLAT directed Polycab to deposit the entire amount via a fixed deposit receipt within a week and kept the stay in abeyance until further orders. CNBC-TV18 notes that Polycab was shortlisted under the IBC framework.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Both outlets report the same facts: NSE’s 30 December deadline for F&O removal and the NCLAT stay on insolvency proceedings. The Economic Times leads with the regulatory action and includes procedural detail on the NCLAT direction for a fixed deposit, while CNBC-TV18 foregrounds the 100% margin levy and the shortlisting under the IBC framework, as well as Polycab’s quarterly results. Neither outlet shows a pro-government or critical slant, the coverage is uniform, factual, and business-focused. The next concrete item is the expiry of the October contracts and the 30 December 2026 deadline for complete F&O exit.
