Reliance Infrastructure Limited Urges SEBI to Review Ibc-linked Surveillance Framework

Reliance Infrastructure Limited (RELINFRA) has submitted a formal representation to the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), seeking a review of the surveillance framework linked to the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC). Reliance Infrastructure has sought a review of the Additional Surveillance Measure (ASM) framework and the related trading restrictions on its shares, citing their adverse impact on its more than 7 lakh public shareholders.

Need for Fair and Efficient Price Discovery

In its representation, Reliance Infrastructure has highlighted that the current framework, which permits trading only once a week within a narrow ±5% price band, results in price movements that are largely mechanical and predictable. The Company believes that such restrictions may not adequately reflect prevailing business fundamentals, operational performance or long-term value creation potential.

Call for Balanced Regulatory Safeguards

Reliance Infrastructure has submitted that the once-a-week trading framework constrains efficient market price discovery and may inadvertently contribute to the erosion of shareholder value. The Company has therefore urged regulators to review the once-a-week trading restriction in its shares, and introduce appropriate safeguards that balance market surveillance objectives with investor protection and shareholder interests.

As part of its representation, Reliance Infrastructure has proposed a calibrated approach that retains key risk-mitigation measures, including gross settlement, 100% margin requirements, Additional Surveillance Deposit (ASD) and price-band safeguards, while enabling more effective price discovery. The Company has requested regulators to consider alternatives such as a periodic call-auction mechanism or a wider and graded price band to facilitate genuine two-sided trading.
