Operational Impact: Affects brokers and trading members who have failed to deliver securities in the normal settlement cycle. These members must now procure shares through the auction mechanism, typically at higher prices.
Liquidity Impact: Securities with smaller quantities (1-100 shares) will see minimal impact, while those with larger auction quantities may experience temporary liquidity constraints and price pressure.
Sector Distribution: The auction covers a broad spectrum including power (Adani Green, Adani Power, NHPC), automobiles (Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland), banking (State Bank of India), and various mid/small-cap companies across manufacturing, textiles, and technology sectors.
Impact Justification
Routine demat auction settlement affecting multiple securities with potential impact on delivery obligations and short covering for affected scrips.
