Re: How to write covered calls
Yes, you will have to pay the 20% margin for the call option sold, and it will be marked to market everyday. There is no cross margining in India between the cash and F&O segment, which is why you will have to put up the margin. If the stock closes above 105 on expiry, you will have to settle in cash, not by delivery of the shares.

Re: How to write covered calls
I do not fully understand the technical terms but have been told that he margines are lower for spreads. ALSO I read the following on NSE site :
*************************************** Calendar Spread Charge The margin on calendar spread shall be calculated on the basis of delta of the portfolio consisting of futures and options contracts in each month. A Calendar spread positions will be treated as non-spread (naked) positions in the far month contract, 3 trading days prior to expiration of the near month contract. Net Option Value Net Option Value is computed as the difference between the Long Option positions and the Short Option positions, valued at the last available closing price of the relevant option contract.
