This trigger price has nothing to do with stoploss. It is used for margin calculation.
As I understand, the current margin requirement of 16686 is sufficient as long as Nifty is above 3254. If NIFTY goes below 3254, there will be additional margin requirement.

Subrata, hope you understand the risk involved with selling options. As an option seller, you are taking obligation with unlimited (theoratically, in reality, still significantly high) for limited reward. If market falls, then this put will gain in value and you will have to buy it back at much higher price then initial premium that u have collected. (your are currently loosing Rs 18/- on this position i.e.30% of premium that u have collected). Successful Option sellers either have fat wallet or they manage the risk well. Hope you are taking care of it.

Happy Trading

you have said, you are a small investor and beginner. so best help would be to say - avoid futures and options. that too selling puts at these levels is highly dangerous.
