Intrinsic value of an Option is the amount by which the strike price of an option is in-the-money. It is also considered as the value of an Option if it were exercised today.
For Call option
Intrinsic value = Current price of underlying - Strike Price
For Put Option
Intrinsic value = Strike Price - Current price of underlying
For example, you hold a Reliance Call Option at 900 and the current price of the stock is 920 then the intrinsic value of your Option will be:
920-900= Rs 20
Please note that the Intrinsic value of an underlying can either be positive or zero. It cannot be negative.
