Sebi likely to implement one-hour settlement of trades by March 2024

Markets regulator Sebi will introduce one-hour trade settlements by the end of this fiscal, in the run up to making such processes instantaneous, a top official said on Tuesday. Amid concerns raised by certain foreign portfolio investors on the shortening of the settlement cycles citing forex-related worries, the official made it clear that faster settlements are optional and investors can opt out.

"From one day to one hour to instantaneous is the roadmap," the official said, adding one hour settlements are much quicker to implement than instantaneous. The official said technology for one hour trade settlements already exists and the regulator is confident about the same, while the instantaneous settlements need more technology development. At present, Sebi is thinking of rolling out the one hour trade settlement for

BSE changes Jio Financial Services stock price band to 20% from 5%

Leading stock exchange BSE has revised the circuit limit of Jio Financial Services, the demerged non-banking financial services unit of Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance group, to 20 per cent from the existing 5 per cent. The new limits will be effective from Monday, September 4, according to a notification issued by BSE. The move would ensure stock prices do not fluctuate beyond a prescribed level during a session.
