February 25, 2015 at 10:48 AM EST
Investors in HDFC Bank Ltd (HDB) saw new options become available this week, for the October 16th expiration. One of the key data points that goes into the price an option buyer is willing to pay, is the time value, so with 233 days until expiration the newly available contracts represent a potential opportunity for sellers of puts or calls to achieve a higher premium than would be available for the contracts with a closer expiration..
