Exchange shall update the file structure to accommodate the aforesaid additional messages and provide the relevant indicators in the REG_INDDDMMYY.csv file.

 

In order to inform investors about these additional alert messages, trading members are directed to develop a cautionary message to their clients based on the additional fields populated in the REG_INDDDMMYY.csv file.

 

Trading Members are required to develop a functionality on their non- BOLT/BOW front end including IBT, STWT, CTCL etc., whereby any person while placing an order in a security for which the cautionary indicators are applicable (as per the REG_INDDDMMYY.csv file), gets the following message so that the person placing the order is aware of such single/multiple actions on the scrip before placing the order. The message shall be as under:

 

“Security is under - , would you like to continue?” Yes / No.

 

For example: If a security qualifies for a combination of multiple actions, e.g. Qualifies for ‘GSM-0’, ‘ESM-1’, ‘Failed to pay Annual listing fee’ & ‘BAN period’ in F&O’, then the pop-up message while placing an order for that security shall display all the 3 messages. In this case, sample message should be “Security is under - GSM-0, ESM-1, Failed to pay Annual listing fee & BAN period in F&O, would you like to continue?” Yes / No.  This is applicable for any combination of mandatory pop up alert message indicated in para 4.

 

The functionality will provide the option for the person placing the order to either select “Yes” or “No”. The order shall be sent to the Exchange only if option “Yes” is selected.

 

Trading members may please note that the aforesaid verbatim of the pop-up message should mandatorily be included in the pop-up message on the trading front-end.

 

Trading Members are also required to maintain a LOG of all such displays per scrip and the options selected by the investor on the order entry screen. Management of the TM needs to provide such LOGs to the Board of the Trading Member and must satisfy them that all alerts were displayed at the time of order entry and the option chosen by the client on the system was also recorded.

 

The System Auditor should also check in the periodic submission, whether the above functionality was properly deployed.

 

 

 

 

Sample format of the revised file (REG_INDDDMMYY.csv) along with the file structure will be provided vide a separate circular.

 

The file (REG_INDDDMMYY.csv) shall continue to be made available daily on the Exchange website.

 

Further it is reiterated that the aforesaid feature is mandatory for trading members with retail clients.

 

Trading members are requested to build the requisite functionality and comply with the circular preferably by December 10, 2024 and mandatorily by January 10, 2025.

 

In case of any queries, members are requested to contact on bse.surv@bseindia.com.
