22 March 2020 A person is considered as a Significant Beneficial Owner (SBO) if he/she, whether acting alone, together or through one or more individuals or trust holds a beneficial interest of at least 10% (25% previously)
In order to be a SBO, a person must have an indirect right or entitlement and where the person has only direct holding, he shall not be termed as the SBO. This is mainly because the provisions have been framed to identify the ultimate beneficial so, where the owners are well disclosed to the company, the application of the said Rules will be of no use.
A director shall not considered as Significant Beneficial Owner and no need to file any disclosure of SBO.
