Dear Sir/ Madam,
Sub: MANDATORY FILING OF RECONCILIATION OF SHARE CAPITAL AUDIT REPORT IN XBRL MODE
In continuation to the Circulars to the companies dated November 30, 2015, March 11, 2016, March 16, 2016, January 18, 2017 and March 30, 2017 with regard 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 mandated filing of the following Regulations in XBRL:-
1. Corporate Governance (Regulation 27)
2. Shareholding Pattern (Regulation 31)
3. Voting Results (Regulation 44)
4. Financial Result (Regulation 33)
It is observed that although filing of Reconciliation of Share Capital Audit Report (Regulation 55A) in XBRL was not mandatory, several companies have been filing their Secretarial Audit Report in XBRL using the Excel Utility provided, which is an encouraging sign.
Accordingly, it has been decided that with effect from July 01, 2017 onwards, all listed entities with BSE, would be required to make their filings in respect of Reconciliation of Share Capital Audit Report (Regulation 55A of SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 1996 in XBRL mode along with the submission of the original Share Capital Audit Report in PDF mode.
Reconciliation of Share Capital Audit Report (Regulation 55A of SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 1996 is required to be filed in PDF mode through the Listing Centre website – Compliance Module.
For the above purpose, the Excel Utility for filing Reconciliation of Share Capital Audit Report (Regulation 55A of SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 1996) in XBRL mode has already been made available for download in the Listing Centre portal under the head XBRL.
As stated earlier, BSE has provided a Helpdesk to assist Users with technical issues regarding their XBRL filings. The email queries may be addressed to bse.xbrl@bseindia.com. You may alternatively call the Helpdesk on toll free number 1800 233 0445.
We are sure that all listed entities will embrace this user-friendly move that leads to more efficient and error-free filings.
Thank you for your support.
