A protective put combines a long underlying position with a purchased put on the exposure. Remember: A protective put provides downside insurance at a premium cost.
Hint Common mistake: The put must be purchased, not written. Identify ownership combined with downside protection.

Which combination forms a basic equity collar on an existing long share position?
A collar commonly combines long shares, a purchased protective put and a written call. Remember: A collar trades upside potential for downside protection.
Hint Common mistake: Do not confuse buying and writing the protective put. Think of a floor financed partly by an upside cap.

A bull call spread buys a ₹100 call for ₹12 and sells a ₹110 call for ₹6. At expiry the share is ₹120. What is net profit per unit?
Long call payoff = ₹20, short call payoff = −₹10, net payoff = ₹10. Net premium paid = ₹12 − ₹6 = ₹6. Profit = ₹10 − ₹6 = ₹4. Remember: A vertical call spread has a capped payout.
Hint Common mistake: Deduct the net premium from combined leg payoff. Calculate the combined intrinsic payoff and initial net premium.
