The SEBI has introduced a two-pronged, one-time relief measure for companies to ease IPO validity timelines and Minimum Public Shareholding (MPS) compliance requirements.
The measure extends the validity of “SEBI Observation Letters” (IPO approvals) that expire between April and September 2026 until September 2026. SEBI also granted a one-time relaxation for listed companies to meet the 25% MPS threshold if their deadlines fall within the same period of April to September 2026.
