SEBI Reduces Cooling-Off Period for Illiquid Private Listed InvITs to Eight Weeks
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has reduced the cooling-off period for offer-for-sale (OFS) transactions involving privately listed illiquid Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) from 12 weeks to 8 weeks. This change, effective immediately, aims to ease trading restrictions and improve business conditions. The revised framework maintains existing trading lot sizes and excludes retail investor provisions for these private InvITs. SEBI has instructed stock exchanges to update their systems and regulations accordingly.
