Operational Impact: Brokers with clients having delivery failures must arrange funds for auction purchases or face penalties. Clients may face higher costs if shares are purchased at auction premiums.
Liquidity Impact: May create temporary price pressure on affected securities, particularly those with large auction quantities like VIKAS LIFECARE, Sagility, and NEW LIGHT INDIA.
Sectoral Spread: Broad-based across sectors including power (Adani Power, NHPC), automobiles (Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland), banking (SBI), infrastructure, textiles, and others - indicating widespread settlement issues rather than sector-specific problems.
