1.Introduction

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has once again recognized the Metropolitan Stock Exchange of India Limited (MSEI), reinforcing its role in India’s financial market ecosystem. This renewal ensures continuity in the functioning of the exchange under the established legal framework governing securities contracts.

2. Legal Framework of Recognition

The renewal of recognition has been granted under Section 4 of the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956 (SCRA).

3. Validity Period of Renewal

The renewed recognition is valid for the period commencing on 16 September 2025 and will remain effective until 15 September 2026. During this time, MSEI will continue to facilitate trading in contracts of securities while being governed by SEBI’s prescribed conditions. This one-year extension reflects SEBI’s cautious and performance-based approach to regulating exchanges.

4.Conditions and Compliance Requirements

As with every renewal, the recognition is subject to strict compliance with conditions prescribed by SEBI from time to time. These conditions may relate to governance, financial soundness, risk management, transparency, and investor protection measures. The renewal acts as a reminder that SEBI retains supervisory control and may withdraw recognition in case of violations or non-compliance.

5. Conclusion

The renewal of recognition of MSEI by SEBI not only validates the exchange’s operational standing but also reinforces the importance of continuous regulatory oversight in India’s securities market. By granting this extension, SEBI has ensured that MSEI remains a part of India’s capital market infrastructure while maintaining high standards of compliance and investor protection.
