Summary

Impact Assessment
Securities moved to lower GSM stages benefit from reduced trading restrictions, such as relaxed price bands and modified margin requirements. This is a positive development for the affected stocks and their investors, as it signals improved compliance with surveillance criteria. The broader market impact is limited, as this affects only specific securities identified in the Annexure. Trading members should update their systems and client communications accordingly for the securities listed.
Impact Justification
Routine periodic review of GSM stages affecting specific securities; positive development for impacted stocks moving to lower surveillance stages, but limited broad market impact.
