The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has slashed the market lot size for derivative contracts on Nifty 50, a move that will reduce the burden of excessive upfront margins for retail traders. The lot size has been reduced to 50 from the existing 75, NSE said in a circular on Wednesday.

IT, leading financials, cement, metal, pharma, leading telecom companies and some FMCG firms are likely to report very good results. The market will discount these earnings in advance.
