Sebi all set to review short-selling, SLB framework: Pandey
Business Standard
|November 08, 2025
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) will soon set up a working group to undertake a comprehensive review of short-selling and the Securities Lending and Borrowing (SLB) frameworks, its Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said on Friday.
The framework for short selling, introduced in 2007, has largely remained unchanged since its inception. Similarly, the SLB mechanism, rolled out in 2008 and modified a few times since, continues to be underdeveloped compared to global markets, highlighting the need for a thorough reassessment.
Pandey while speaking at the CNBC-TV18 Global Leadership Summit said, “We will soon form a working group to comprehensively review short selling and the SLB frameworks.”
