Any view on this ?

The government is just thirsty for more taxes.

This is random speculative news just to catch eye ball. Which government has worked for benefit of people?. Governments do things only under circumstances - to improve vote bank or to make money. If at all anything , I would expect this government to replicate the success of F&o in commodity and currency market as well. It is documented that retailers only loose money. Changing it to speculative income will affect only FII and mutual funds. So won't happen is my guess. To grab eyeballs media comes up with such speculative stories. This is one of it

Every day expiry came up with approval of SEBI. There was no concern for retailers then, why now?
