Dear Sir/Madam,
Sub: MANDATORY FILING OF VOTING RESULTS IN XBRL MODE
In continuation to the Circulars to the Companies dated November 30, 2015, March 11, 2016 and March 16, 2016 with regards to mandatory filing of information with the Exchange in electronic mode and with a view to making the disclosure more accurate and efficient, the Exchange had introduced facility of XBRL based reporting for filing of various compliances under SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 and mandated XBRL filing for the following Regulations:-
- Corporate Governance (Regulation 27)
- Shareholding Pattern (Regulation 31)
It was observed that since the XBRL filing for the above mentioned regulations has been made mandatory, all companies have been filing their SHP / Corporate Governance Report using XBRL. Along with these two filings, the Exchange has been receiving XBRL filings for Voting Results (Regulation 44) from several companies. It is also found that there are hardly any errors or inconsistencies observed in these filings.
Accordingly, it has been decided that with effect from January 30, 2017, filings in respect of Voting Results (Regulation 44) would be required to be filed mandatorily by all listed entities, through XBRL mode only. Filing of compliances under Regulation 44 in modes other than XBRL format shall not be considered as submission.
All listed entities are urged to cooperate in this initiative and help us to make the filing process with the Exchange easier, more convenient and faster.
As stated earlier, BSE has provided an online real-time Helpdesk to assist Users with their XBRL filings – they may email queries if any to bse.xbrl@bseindia.com or call the Helpdesk on toll free number 1800 233 0445.
Thank you
