thebalanced.newsSebi Sets Uniform 30-Day Lag for Market Data Use in Educational Content from July 2026
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has established a uniform 30-day lag for sharing and using stock market data in educational and investor awareness activities, effective from July 1, 2026. This decision resolves prior regulatory inconsistencies between earlier circulars that set one-day and three-month delays. Sebi aims to balance preventing misuse of market data with maintaining the relevance of educational content, following concerns raised during legal proceedings involving alleged misuse of live data by an educational firm.
