Important Dates
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Original suspension effective date | December 13, 2021 |
| NSE circular date | March 25, 2026 |
| Revocation effective date / Trading resumes | April 02, 2026 |
| Special pre-open session | April 02, 2026 |
Impact Assessment
The revocation of suspension is a significant positive event for investors holding AHLWEST shares, as trading resumes after more than four years of suspension. However, the ‘BE’ (trade-for-trade) series designation means that the stock will not benefit from intraday netting, and each trade must be settled on a gross basis, which may limit speculative activity. The special pre-open session on the day of resumption is intended to provide price discovery before normal trading begins. Market participants should exercise caution given the extended period of suspension and should review the company’s recent financial disclosures before trading.
Impact Justification
Trading suspension revocation directly affects market participants holding or wishing to trade AHLWEST shares; trading resumes after over 4 years of suspension with specific settlement conditions.
