10 April 2026 I would appreciate some guidance on the recent changes to the SEBI Listing Regulations.
Prior to the introduction of Chapter VA, most debt-listed entities, particularly those classified as High Value Debt Listed Entities (HVDLEs), were complying with Regulations 16 to 27 relating to corporate governance.
With the introduction of Chapter VA, which is specifically applicable to listed Non-Convertible Debt Securities (NCDs), I have a couple of queries:
1. Are Regulations 16 to 27 still applicable to HVDLEs, or does Chapter VA now fully govern their compliance requirements?
2. In a situation where a company qualified as a High Value Listed Entity during part of the last quarter of FY 2026–27, but subsequently falls below the revised threshold of Rs. 5,000 crore, would it still be required to comply with filings such as the Corporate Governance Report and Related Party Transaction disclosures for the quarter/year ending March?
Any insights or clarifications from professionals or those who have dealt with similar situations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance
