SEBI Reviews Closing Auction Session Mechanism Amid Public Consultation
SEBI chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey defended the proposed Closing Auction Session (CAS) mechanism, emphasizing the need for market rules to adapt to current realities. The regulator has received about 3,500 public comments on the consultation paper, which closes on October 3. The CAS aims to improve price determination, especially for passive investing, by pooling orders and using actual transaction prices. The review follows concerns over price volatility in derivatives on expiry days, with SEBI seeking to implement changes promptly after analyzing feedback.
