The circular introduces additional payment mechanisms, such as ASBA, for paying the balance money on calls for partly paid specified securities issued by listed entities.

The new channels include online ASBA via an SCSB's portal, physical ASBA at an SCSB branch, and an additional online mode using linked trading, demat, and bank accounts (3-in-1 accounts) offered by brokers.

The payment period for making the balance money payment in calls will be kept open for fifteen days.

This circular shall be applicable for all Call Money Notices where the payment period opens on or after January 01, 2021.

Intermediaries, including the issuer company and its Registrar and Transfer Agents (RTAs), shall provide necessary guidance to specified security holders on using the ASBA mechanism when making payments for calls.
