The stock's median quarter sigma-size (average of median buying and selling price) should not be less than Rs 10 lakh. The market-wide position limit in the stock should not be less than Rs 300 crore. If a stock fails to meet the eligibility criteria for three consecutive months, exchanges stop issuing fresh contracts on that security .
