It is well known now, that a Time Fractional Black Scholes Equation (TFBSE) with a time derivative of real order $ \alpha $ can be obtained to describe the price of an option, when for example the change in the underlying asset is assumed to follow a fractal transmission system. Fractional derivatives as they are called were introduced in option pricing in a bid to take advantage of their memory properties to capture both major jumps over small time periods and long range dependencies in markets. Recently new derivatives of Fractional Calculus with non local and/or non singular Kernel, have been introduced and have had substantial changes in modelling of some diffusion processes. Based on consistency and heuristic arguments, this work generalises previously obtained Time Fractional Black Scholes Equations to a new class of Time Fractional Black Scholes Equations. A numerical scheme solution is also derived. The stability of the numerical scheme is discussed, graphical simulations are produced to price a double barriers knock out call option.
