Operational Impact: Medium - Brokers with delivery failures must arrange funds/securities for auction participation. Clients who failed to deliver will face auction losses and potential penalties.
Investor Impact: Low to Medium - Specific investors/traders who had open positions in these scrips for the settlement period may face auction charges. Broader market participants are not directly affected.
Liquidity Impact: Low - Auction quantities are small relative to typical trading volumes for most large-cap stocks. However, for smaller stocks with limited liquidity, the auction could cause temporary price movements.
Impact Justification
