<h2 id="impact-assessment">Impact Assessment</h2>
<p>This change has a moderate operational impact on commodity derivatives participants trading Gold Futures. By removing all additional delivery centres, BSE is consolidating delivery logistics, which may affect participants who relied on regional centres for physical settlement. Traders and members involved in physical delivery of gold under futures contracts will need to revise their delivery planning from the June 2026 contract cycle. The change does not affect financial settlement or trading activity directly, but impacts physical delivery mechanisms for commodity participants.</p>
