sebi is now proposing to EXclude in the 25% PUBLIS QUOTA CATEGORIES LIKE FII,FI AND MUTUAL FUNDS.
THIS MEANS 25% QUOTA SHOULD ONLY BE HELD EXCLUSIVELY BY GENERAL PUBLIC.
LET US SEE IF THIS PROPOSAL TRANSLATES INTO APPROVAL. IF THAT BE, ALL BLUE CHIP COMPANIES HAVE TO DEVOLVE PROMOTER HOLDINGS IN FAVOR OF PUBLIC TO THE EXTENT OF COMPLYING WITH THE PROPOSED PATTERN.
