Compliance Requirements

  • Trading members must apply enhanced surveillance measures and applicable margin requirements for securities newly added to the LT-ASM framework
  • Securities moved to Stage 2 ASM (Sirohia & Sons Ltd) are subject to stricter trading conditions applicable to that stage
  • Securities removed from LT-ASM (Noble Polymers Ltd and OTCO International Ltd) are now subject to ESM and GSM frameworks respectively
  • Market participants should update their systems to reflect the revised consolidated list in Annexure III

Important Dates

  • March 9, 2026: Noble Polymers Ltd and OTCO International Ltd removed from LT-ASM Framework
  • March 10, 2026: 5 new securities added to LT-ASM Framework (effective date)
  • March 10, 2026: Sirohia & Sons Ltd moved to Stage 2 ASM (effective date)

Impact Assessment

Traders and investors holding positions in the 5 newly added securities (Alfavision Overseas India Ltd, Bhagawati Gas Ltd, Decorous Investment & Trading Co Ltd, Garware Marine Industries Ltd, and Magenta Lifecare Ltd) will face enhanced surveillance measures including higher margin requirements and trade-to-trade settlement restrictions. Sirohia & Sons Ltd faces tighter restrictions following its move to the higher Stage 2 ASM. The removal of Noble Polymers Ltd and OTCO International Ltd from LT-ASM does not represent a relaxation of restrictions, as these securities have been transferred to the ESM and GSM frameworks respectively, which carry their own trading restrictions.

Impact Justification

LT-ASM framework changes directly affect trading conditions for multiple securities, imposing enhanced surveillance and margin requirements on newly added stocks while releasing others.
