Impact Assessment

This is a routine operational notice. The auction affects market participants (brokers and their clients) who have unresolved delivery obligations in the 95 listed scrips. The presence of high-volume blue-chip stocks such as ITC (164,800 shares), Reliance Industries (10,030 shares), and Bajaj Finance (7,500 shares) indicates meaningful settlement shortfalls. Buyers in these scrips will receive delivery through the auction mechanism. No broader market policy impact is anticipated.

Impact Justification
