because then indian institutional traders will have to sit 12 hours to trade lining up with US markets and i don't think they are ready for that yet.

It will be stressful for scalpers and intraday instituions to trade 12 hours instead of 6 hrs.

Emini also runs 24 hours , but US traders don't trade past their regular working hours, so not much benefit.
What is the point of keeping the markets open after 5, we anyways won't get to trade any currency pairs other than the Rupee pairs. We have been asking for it, but the real action in currency markets will start when we start getting to trade all the other currency pairs, like the EURUSD, USDJPY etc.

But if it is only Rs, the boys from SBI, RBI etc go home by 5, ;), so don't see if any action will happen after that..

if the big boys are really interested and i know they are because FOREX markets are bigger than any futures/stock market , so i m really surprised that institutions have not put pressure to get this done.

What i think is that govt and RBI fear than there will huge selling in INR if they allow people to trade in other currencies and as a result will have huge economic and political impact.

INR is not exactly in much demand...

why they are not creating virtual instrument for EURUSD where the underlying will still be USDINR and EURINR pairs
Similarly for USDJPY the underlying will be USDINR and JPYINR...

Buying 1 unit of EURUSD will internally buy 1 unit of EURINR and sell 1 unit of USDINR and vice versa

This will be win win.
Implementing this should not be that difficult.
Please enlighten me if I am missing anything.

Even if we have currency trading for 24 hours, it won't make much difference. As such, currencies dont move much. In the whole year, major currencies move like 10-12% up or down unlike stock indices which move 25-30%

The only exception is USD/JPY. That thing moves like crazy and that pair is a traders paradise
