Gold mini lot size is 100 grams. At current prices around ₹75,000 per 10 grams, contract value is approximately ₹7.5 lakhs. Margin requirement is usually 6-8% so around ₹45,000-60,000 per lot depending on volatility. With 50k capital you can take 1 lot position but that leaves no room for adverse movement. Better to have at least 75k-1 lakh for comfortable trading.
