Impact Assessment

This is a routine demat auction covering failed deliveries from a prior settlement cycle. The impact is limited to counterparties with short delivery positions in the listed scrips. The auction spans a broad cross-section of the market including blue-chip names (HDFC Bank, Infosys, Reliance Industries, SBI, Tata Steel, Wipro), indicating widespread but individually small delivery failures. Large-quantity lots in smaller scrips (e.g., NOVARTIS IND at 4,031 shares, BGIL FILMS at 3,602 shares) may see localized price impact during the auction session. Overall market impact is low.

Impact Justification

Routine demat auction notice listing ~190 securities across multiple scrips for Settlement No. 825. Impacts only specific shareholders with failed deliveries; operationally routine but affects a broad range of stocks including large-caps like HDFC Bank, Infosys, Reliance, and SBI.
