FAQ :

The circular provides a relaxation from the standard requirement of submitting the latest audited financials for the listing of debt securities, specifically NCDs, NCRPS, and CPs, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The relaxation applies to provisions of the SEBI (Issue and Listing of Debt Securities) Regulations, 2008, SEBI (Non-Convertible Redeemable Preference Shares) Regulations, 2013, and SEBI Circulars related to the Listing of Commercial Papers.

Listed issuers who have issued NCDs, NCRPS, or CPs on or after July 1, 2020, and intend to list them on or before July 31, 2020, are permitted to use available financials as of December 31, 2019.

Issuers can use their available financials as of December 31, 2019, for the purpose of listing these instruments within the specified period.

SEBI had previously extended the timelines for submitting financial results for the quarter/half-year/annual financial year ending March 31, 2020, until July 31, 2020.
