Earlier this year, BSE had initiated a procedure to help
firms, suspended on account of non-compliance with listing norms, meet the necessary regulatory requirements speedily.
Under the procedure, BSE-listed firms are required to meet with the compliances to revoke their suspension, within a prescribed time limit, and failure to complete the process would result in compulsory delisting of such companies from the stock exchange.

Meanwhile, BSE has also empanelled independent valuers to compute the fair value of companies that are to be delisted.
There are estimated to be over 1,200 companies whose shares are listed on national bourses BSE and NSE but where trading has been suspended for various non-compliance issues for over seven years.
Besides, there are over 3,000 companies listed on various regional stock exchanges that have become defunct.
According to Sebi whole time member Rajeev Kumar Agarwal, the regulator is working on guidelines to remove companies which have been suspended for many years.
