The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan amends the Public Offering Regulations 2017 to introduce definitions for Green Field Projects, Offer Price, and Price Band, establishing a price band limit of 40% above the Floor Price. New eligibility criteria require issuers to have operated for at least three financial years with a profitable track record for two preceding years, though these exemptions apply to Green Field Projects. The amendments also impose bid restrictions on issuer associates (10%) and consultant associates (5%), mandate scrip-less issuance, and update disclosure requirements for post-issue free float and peer group comparisons in the prospectus.
