SEBI Plans Partial Reversal of Closing Auction Rules for Derivatives Settlement
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is likely to partly reverse its recently introduced Closing Auction Session (CAS) rules for derivatives settlement after sharp price swings on expiry days. SEBI may stop using CAS to calculate derivatives settlement prices for at least a year, reverting to the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the last 30 minutes of trading. The closing auction will continue to determine end-of-day prices for underlying stocks in less liquid cash markets. SEBI received around 20,000 suggestions following a consultation paper and plans to implement changes by the end of October.
