Resolve each investor grievance promptly and no later than 21 calendar days after receipt. LODR regulation 13(1) and D&P regulation 72(1) impose the same limit. The quarterly grievance statement is a different filing owned by the SEBI periodic lane.

What changed

The current LODR text uses a hard 21-calendar-day limit. The earlier general requirement to take adequate steps for expeditious redressal no longer states the rule fully.

Deadlines counted from an event
