MeridStreet AI summary

The Securities and Exchange Board of India, Sebi, has reduced the cooling-off period for illiquid private listed Infrastructure Investment Trusts, InvITs, to 8 weeks. This change aims to make it easier for InvITs to raise funds through Offer for Sale, OFS, by reducing the time they must wait before listing. The previous 12-week cooling-off period has been shortened to address concerns from market participants and enhance the ease of doing business. This move may help InvITs with low trading volumes and large lot sizes to raise capital more efficiently.
