The read

NSE is adjusting UNIONBANK derivative contracts for a ₹5 per share dividend — a standard, SEBI-mandated process. Strike prices and lot sizes will be revised, with updated contract files available on July 2, a day before the July 3 ex-date. For traders holding F&O positions, the adjustment means no sudden value erosion from the payout, but members must load the new files to avoid order placement errors. This is a routine technical update, not a market-moving event. The only action required: make sure your systems are updated ahead of the ex-date.
