IV skew is the difference in implied volatility across strike prices for TECHM options on NSE. In most markets, OTM puts carry higher IV than OTM calls — this is called put skew, reflecting demand for downside protection. When OTM calls carry higher IV it is called call skew, often seen before earnings or in strongly bullish markets. The current TECHM ATM IV is 2741.0% with relatively flat skew.
What does a steep IV skew mean for TECHM options strategy?
A steep put skew for TECHM means OTM put options are expensive relative to calls — the market is pricing in tail-risk to the downside. This makes selling OTM puts relatively attractive (collect elevated premium) but buying put protection expensive. A steep call skew (unusual) signals bullish sentiment or an upcoming event. Traders use the IV skew to select strikes that offer the best premium relative to directional risk.
