SENSEX Prop Firm — Funded BSE Index Options

SENSEX is the BSE side of a DhanFunded assessment. Same account sizes, same published loss limits, same 14-day payout cycle as NIFTY and BANKNIFTY — but a smaller contract and a weekly expiry on its own day, which is why a lot of intraday participants build their week around it.

The rules you trade it under

The index does not change the rules. These are the three programmes, priced on a ₹1,00,000 account, with every limit shown as money rather than a percentage.

Where SENSEX differs from the NSE indices

It is a BSE contract

NIFTY and BANKNIFTY are NSE. SENSEX is BSE, with its own expiry calendar and its own liquidity profile through the day.

A smaller lot

One contract moves your balance less than a BANKNIFTY lot does. On a ₹3,000 daily limit that difference decides how many mistakes a day can absorb.

A different expiry day

Its weekly expiry does not fall on the NSE day, so an expiry-day approach can be run on more than one session a week.

Simulated, and stated plainly

SENSEX prices inside an assessment come from the live market, but orders are not routed to BSE and no position exists on an exchange. What is being measured is whether you can work inside a fixed set of risk limits. DhanFunded is not a broker, exchange member or investment adviser, and gives no trading advice or recommendations.

Common questions

Can I trade SENSEX options in a prop firm assessment?

Yes. SENSEX index options on BSE are available on every DhanFunded programme, alongside NIFTY and BANKNIFTY. The same loss limits and profit targets apply whichever index you choose.

What is the SENSEX lot size?

SENSEX options carry a smaller lot than BANKNIFTY, which is why participants working with a tight daily limit often prefer it. The exact contract specification shown inside the terminal always follows the current BSE circular.

Why trade SENSEX instead of NIFTY?

Two practical reasons. Its weekly expiry falls on a different day from the NSE indices, so an expiry-day approach can be run more than once a week. And the smaller lot means one contract moves your balance less, which matters when your daily limit is ₹3,000 to ₹4,000.

Are SENSEX futures allowed?

Assessments are built around index options. Futures, overnight positions, copy execution and algorithmic execution are not permitted inside an assessment.

When can I place SENSEX orders?

During the Indian market session, 9:15 am to 3:15 pm IST. Orders outside the session are rejected, and no position can be carried past the close.
