Operational Impact: Routine - Standard suspension procedure for maturing debt securities. Market participants are accustomed to such suspensions as part of regular debt market operations.

Impact Justification

Routine suspension of privately placed NCDs due to scheduled redemption. Limited market impact as these are privately placed instruments with restricted trading.
