SEBI Proposes Easier Rules for Non-Convertible Security Issuers
SEBI, the Indian financial regulator, wants to make it easier for companies that issue bonds to share financial information.
Instead of sending paper copies, companies can now provide a link and a QR code to access reports online.
This will save money and reduce paper waste.
SEBI is also setting deadlines for companies to share this information, based on the type of company and the relevant rules.
The goal is to modernize the system and make it easier to do business.
SEBI proposed easing rules for issuers of non-convertible securities.
Issuers can replace hard copy financials with a web link and QR code.
This change aims to reduce costs, paper waste, and improve regulatory consistency.
SEBI proposed timelines for sending financials to debenture holders.
Public comments on the proposals are open until August 15.
