BSE identifies specific securities for inclusion under Short Term Additional Surveillance Measure (ST-ASM) Stage I and Stage II. For Stage I securities, the exchange sets the margin rate at 50 percent or the existing margin, whichever is higher, capped at 100 percent. For Stage II securities, the exchange sets the margin rate at 100 percent. These measures apply to all open positions as of August 31, 2026, and all new positions created from September 1, 2026. The ASM framework operates alongside other existing surveillance measures. This action results from market surveillance and does not represent an adverse action against the affected entities.
What you must do
- Apply a 50 percent margin rate or the existing margin, whichever is higher, for Stage I securities.
- Apply a 100 percent margin rate for Stage II securities.
