SEBI Confirms Closing Auction Session Will Continue Amid Review of Market Feedback
SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey affirmed that the Closing Auction Session (CAS), introduced on August 3 to determine stock closing prices via a dedicated auction, is here to stay. While acknowledging initial challenges such as low participation, legacy system issues, and sharp price swings, SEBI is analyzing market feedback and data to identify possible improvements. The regulator emphasized that CAS aligns Indian markets with global practices and that enhancements, including reforms to the securities lending and borrowing mechanism, could support greater participation and efficiency.
