Operational Impact: Trading members and market participants need to update their systems, algorithms, and reference databases to reflect new symbols. The short notice period (1 day) requires immediate action from market infrastructure providers and trading desks.
Investor Impact: Minimal direct impact on investors as holdings and ISINs remain unchanged. Investors need to use new symbols for placing orders from December 24, 2025 onwards. Portfolio tracking systems may require updates to reflect new symbols.
Impact Justification
Symbol changes affect trading operations for 11 UTI ETF schemes but do not impact underlying holdings or trading mechanics. Important for traders and systems to update references.
