Disclosure obligations under SEBI's Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers Regulations - for promoters and large shareholders whose stake crosses reporting thresholds.
Acquiring 5% or more of voting rights triggers an initial disclosure obligation.
Any subsequent 2% change in holding for those above 5% must also be disclosed.
Disclosures are typically due within 2 trading days of the triggering event.
Promoters and promoter group must also file an annual disclosure regardless of change.
We track shareholding against the 5%/2% disclosure thresholds continuously.
Required forms prepared and filed with the company and stock exchanges within the deadline.
Yearly filing prepared regardless of whether any change in holding occurred.
Not relevant pre-listing, but understanding these obligations early helps founders plan for a future listing.
