The Securities and Exchange Board of India has announced a new settlement framework aimed at simplifying and speeding up the settlement process for stock market investors.
New Delhi, November 9 (Connect Gujarat) – The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has unveiled a fresh settlement framework designed to streamline the post‑trade process for equity investors. The regulator said the initiative will cut settlement times and bring greater transparency to the market.
Under the new system, investors will benefit from faster credit of shares and cash, reducing the risk of settlement failures. SEBI highlighted that the framework aligns with global best practices and leverages electronic platforms to automate reconciliation.
The board indicated that the framework will be rolled out in phases, with full implementation expected later this year. Market participants have been urged to upgrade their systems to comply with the new rules.
