Hi Virinchi,

No. You can't alter the behavior of this field, because it is involved in various system functions (forecasting, setting the default probability and forecast category, etc). Most standard objects won't allow some field or another to be removed. The most typical example is the Name field (AccountName, Contact Name, etc), but other fields, such as Close Date and Stage also can't be removed or even locked down because they are involved in integrated functions, such as forecasting, lead conversion, etc. These fields are usually documented in the Help & Training information under that object.
