Where INDHOTEL open interest sits
The heaviest call open interest is at the 750 strike, holding 8,69,000 contracts — 15.9% of all INDHOTEL call open interest on the board, 3.89% above the spot of 722. Call open interest concentrated above price is commonly read as resistance, on the reasoning that writers there are defending the level. It is a crowding observation, not a rule — the level holds until that open interest unwinds.
On the put side the weight is at 680 with 5,33,000 contracts, 15.3% of INDHOTEL put open interest, 5.81% below spot. Put open interest concentrated below price is usually treated as support for the same reason, and breaks the same way.

What INDHOTEL's PCR is saying
INDHOTEL is carrying 34,80,000 contracts of put open interest against 54,69,000 of call, a put-call ratio of 0.64 — mildly call-heavy positioning. PCR has no universally good value; it is read against its own recent range, and the direction it is moving carries more than the level.
It opened the session at 0.64 and has held to 0.64 — a move of 0.00. That is effectively flat: positioning has not changed sides today.

INDHOTEL against its max pain
Max pain for INDHOTEL computes to 730, with spot at 722 — 1.12% below it. That strike is where the total value of all open contracts expiring would be lowest. It is arithmetic on the current open interest distribution, not a forecast, and the distribution keeps changing.
The curve is defined around it: the nearest strike either side costs writers 3.5% more than 730. A trough that distinct is a stronger reference than a flat basin, though it still describes positioning rather than predicting settlement.
There are 21 sessions to expiry. This far out the figure moves as positions roll, and it is least informative early in a series — worth watching for direction of travel rather than as a target.

What changed in INDHOTEL today
The biggest unwind is −1,000 call contracts at 620. Positions closing matters as much as positions opening — a level defended by open interest stops being defended when that open interest leaves, and a break through a strike that is unwinding is a different event from a break against one that is intact.
Change is measured against this session's opening snapshot rather than the previous close, so the overnight gap and the positions rolled at the open do not swamp the reading.

The move priced into INDHOTEL
The at-the-money straddle on INDHOTEL costs 27.15 — 15.65 for the call and 11.50 for the put at the 720 strike. That sum is what the market charges to be covered in either direction, which makes it the move being priced in: about 3.76% of spot, or roughly 693 to 747 by expiry on a breakeven basis.
The straddle has moved 0.0% since the open. That is close to flat, so today's decay and any volatility move have roughly offset.
Implied volatility at the money is 18.8% on the call and 20.0% on the put. The put carries 1.2 points more, the usual shape when downside protection is bid up relative to upside.

INDHOTEL — frequently asked questions
What is the INDHOTEL ATM strike today?
The at-the-money strike for INDHOTEL is 720, taken from a spot reading of 721.95 on the 29 Sep 2026 expiry. The ATM strike rolls as spot moves, so it is re-selected through the session rather than fixed at the open. It carries the highest time value of any strike, which is why decay is felt most sharply there.
Which INDHOTEL strike has the highest open interest?
The heaviest call open interest sits at 750 with 8,69,000 contracts, and the heaviest put open interest at 680 with 5,33,000 contracts. Those two strikes are commonly read as the working range — calls above spot as resistance, puts below as support. They are crowding observations, not guaranteed barriers.
What is open interest in options?
Open interest is the total number of option contracts in a strike that are still open and not yet squared off or settled. It counts positions, not trades. Rising open interest means fresh contracts are being created and new money is entering that strike; falling open interest means existing positions are being closed out.
