Impact Assessment

Market Impact: Medium - Affects 90+ securities across multiple sectors. While individual quantities are relatively small for most scrips (under 1,000 shares), some notable quantities include ARC Finance (86,154), Wardwizard (21,006), and Indian Railway Finance (20,000).

Operational Impact: Brokers with outstanding delivery obligations in these securities must participate in the auction, potentially at unfavorable prices. This represents failure to deliver and may result in financial losses for the defaulting parties.

Investor Impact: Limited direct impact on retail investors. Primarily affects brokers with settlement failures. May cause temporary price volatility in affected securities during auction execution, particularly for lower-liquidity stocks with larger auction quantities.

Impact Justification

Scheduled demat auction settlement affecting 90+ securities with varying quantities; impacts brokers and investors with pending delivery obligations in listed stocks.
