What changed

BSE updates the list of securities under the Enhanced Surveillance Measure (ESM) framework. Certain securities move to Stage I or exit the framework effective August 13, 2026. Other securities enter the framework effective August 14, 2026. Securities under ESM move to the Trade-for-Trade settlement segment. Securities shifting to Stage II attract a 2% price band and periodic call auction requirements. Securities entering the framework attract a 100% margin on open and new positions. The exchange reviews these securities periodically. This surveillance action does not represent an adverse finding against the companies.
