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. Further, market experts believe that the stock will be out of the trade-to-trade segment next week. Apart from Jio Financial, the price band for nine companies, including RailTel and India Pesticides, has been revised to 10 per cent. A circuit filter mechanism is used by BSE to keep in check excessive volatility in a scrip. It is the maximum fluctuation that is allowed in a stock in a day.
