India’s regulatory authority for the capital market, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), has announced a significant reduction in the time required to list shares after an initial public offering (IPO). Previously, shares could be listed within 6 days of the IPO sale’s closure, but now this timeline has been cut in half. According to the new system, companies are required to list their shares within 3 days after the IPO sale concludes. SEBI has stated that this change will be voluntarily implemented starting from September 1, 2023, and will become mandatory from December 1, 2023.
