SEBI to Review Closing Auction Session Feedback in Upcoming SMAC Meeting
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has scheduled a Secondary Market Advisory Committee (SMAC) meeting to discuss feedback on the closing auction session (CAS) framework introduced in August 2026. The regulator is considering two options for calculating settlement prices for derivatives on expiry days: a blended volume-weighted average price (VWAP) method incorporating CAS trades, or retaining the existing VWAP method based on continuous trading. Market participants have expressed concerns about price volatility during CAS, and SEBI aims to finalize its approach after reviewing stakeholder input.
