Important Dates

Impact Assessment

This circular has moderate operational impact on BSE trading members and clearing participants. Members must track the staggered reporting deadlines carefully, particularly around month-end and market holidays where penalty dates spill into April 2026. No market-wide or price-sensitive impact is expected.

Impact Justification

Routine operational circular providing margin reporting deadlines for members; non-compliance attracts penalties but no structural market changes involved.
