Hello Ankush Gupta,
Let us take the example of Nifty options 8500 strike price. For short sell, 1 lot of Nifty options, you would require Rs. 50000 to carry forward your short position. For intraday, margin required is 17000. You can also trade through cover order or bracket order just by paying a margin of Rs.10000
