You certainly should not exercise a call option when the stocks price is above the strike price. If you really want the stock, go and buy it at the market price.
For example, if you own an option with a strike price of $15 and the stock is trading at $9, why would you pay $15 to buy a stock that you could only buy or sell for $9. That would be irrational.

What is excersing a option?
Exercising an option means exercising your rights to buy or sell the underlying asset in accordance to the parameters of the option. When you exercise a call option, you will get to buy the underlying stock at the strike price no matter what price the stock is trading at in the market. When you exercise a put option, you will get to sell the underlying stock at the strike price no matter what price the stock is selling at in the market. In both cases, the option you own disappears from your account.
What happen if spot price remains above spot price in call option in stock?
If the spot price of the stock exceeds the "strike price" in the call option, the option is in-the-money and you can exercise it. But if you have a choice, wait to exercise it until the stock's spot price exceeds the strike price enough to cover the premium. Example: the strike price is $40 and the premium was $2. In order to make money on this option, the stock price needs to be over $42--enough to pay for the stock and replace the money you spent buying the option.

What is the value of a call option in maturity?
The value of an option at expiry is the difference between the contractual Strike Price and the asset for which you have the call's price at expiry, so long as this number is positive. Should the value be negative, it is bound by zero. This amount is referred to as the Intrinsic Value. For example, if you own a call option on a stock with Strike at $100. Should the final stock price be $120, then your option is worth $20. Should the final stock price be anything less than $100, say $80, then your option is worth $0.
What does exercise share options mean?
A share option, or more popularly a stock option, is a contract that lets its buyer either purchase or sell stock to someone else at a certain price. When you exercise an option, you are telling the brokerage that's the intermediary in the transaction to do whatever it is the contract is set up to do. If you bought a call option, or you earned one as part of your pay, exercising it causes you to buy the stock and have it put in your brokerage account.

What is the difference between writing a call option and buying a put option?
In both cases, you will have to provide the stocks to the counterparty if the option is exercised. There are two differences. First is the nature of the option. Calls are exercised when the stock spot price exceeds the call's strike price. Puts are exercised when the stock spot price is below the put's strike price. The other is, if you write a call you don't get to decide whether it gets exercised--the buyer does. If you buy a put, the choice to exercise it is yours.
