Compliance Requirements

• Orders placed outside the revised band limits will be rejected by the exchange trading system
• Members with queries should contact BSE Surveillance at bse.surv@bseindia.com

Important Dates

• Effective Date: May 11, 2026 (all revised price bands come into force)

Impact Assessment

This is a routine surveillance action by BSE’s DOSS department. The tightening of price bands (e.g., to 1% or 2%) for certain scrips such as Hindusthan Insulators & Industries Ltd and Aksh Optifibre Ltd suggests heightened scrutiny or unusual price movement concerns. Scrips moved to 20% bands (HRS Aluglaze, Mehul Telecom, Omnitech Engineering, Vivid Mercantile) may be experiencing relaxation of prior restrictions. Traders holding positions in these 26 securities should review order strategies to avoid rejections under the new band limits effective May 11.

Impact Justification

Routine surveillance-driven price band revision affecting 26 scrips across varied band levels (1%-20%). Impacts intraday trading limits for these securities but is a standard BSE regulatory action with no systemic market-wide implications.
