Impact Assessment

This circular has a moderate operational impact, primarily affecting depositories (CDSL and NSDL) and their back-office settlement systems for the EGR segment. Market participants trading in Electronic Gold Receipts around the March 30-31, 2026 period should be aware of the revised settlement numbers to avoid reconciliation issues. The change appears to be related to financial year-end settlement adjustments (Indian FY ends March 31), warranting revised settlement numbering.

Impact Justification

Operational update revising settlement numbers for EGR segment affecting depositories CDSL and NSDL; relevant to clearing and settlement participants but not broadly market-moving.
