1. In the above question, the lot size is not mentioned. It says 1 future contract is for the delivery of 50 times the index. 2. Why are we choosing the BSE index for the computation of future price instead of choosing the value of the portfolio, which we did in the previous question?

In previous question they asked us to find out value of stock futures Here they have asked us to hedge the portfolio and that hedging cannot happen by entering to portfolio futures by using stock index futures . Here we use index futures adjusting their quantity to ensure beta of portfolio is same as beta of futures
