SEBI to Expand Clearing Interoperability to Buybacks and Tender Offers by November 2026
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) plans to extend clearing corporation interoperability to include tender offers, share buybacks, and offers for sale (OFS) by November 2026. This expansion aims to simplify clearing processes, reduce brokers' compliance costs, and improve capital efficiency by eliminating the need for multiple clearing arrangements with different exchanges. SEBI Chairperson Tuhin Kanta Pandey emphasized that settlement safety will remain a priority during implementation, addressing concerns raised by the Brokers' Industry Standards Forum about operational burdens on brokers.
