Pandey clarified that SEBI is not trying to clamp down on the futures and options market but is adopting a balanced approach.

While discussing the regulator's recent proposals to NDTV Profit, he said the goal is to improve the market's structure and reduce unnecessary risks for small investors.

"We are continuously reviewing the market, gathering feedback, and we are ready to make adjustments where necessary," Pandey said.
