Extension of Timeline for Implementation of SEBI Circular on Safer Participation of Retail Investors in Algorithmic Trading

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has extended the effective date of its February 4, 2025 circular regarding safer participation of retail investors in algorithmic trading from August 1, 2025, to October 1, 2025. This decision follows representations from stock brokers and Individual Stock Holding (ISF) participants seeking more time to ensure smooth implementation without disrupting market players. Consequently, stock exchanges are directed to notify their members, establish compliance systems, and amend relevant bye-laws and regulations to align with the revised timeline.
