The National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange Limited (NCDEX), on May 19, 2026, issued a circular announcing relaxation in the Orders Per Second (OPS) limit applicable to Algorithmic Trading System (ATS) users in the commodity derivatives segment. The change has been introduced with reference to the relevant Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) circular dated March 17, 2022 and the earlier NCDEX circular dated February 4, 2022.
Under the revised framework, the OPS limit for Algo user IDs has been increased from the existing 60 orders per second to 100 orders per second. The enhancement is intended to facilitate higher order processing capacity for algorithmic traders operating in the commodity derivatives market.
The revised OPS limit shall become effective from Monday, May 25, 2026, and members of the Exchange have been advised to take note of the operational change.
