Streamlined share-pledge rules, simpler offer documents in the works

- KHUSHBOO TIWARI

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) is working on a new set of reforms for initial public offerings (IPOs), including streamlining the process for pledging shares of pre-IPO companies and rationalising disclosure requirements in offer documents, Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said on Thursday.

Speaking at the SBI Banking & Economics Conclave 2025, Pandey said Sebi plans to simplify the summary section of IPO offer documents and make them available separately to investors for feedback. “The process for IPO-bound companies whose pre-IPO shares are pledged is being streamlined. The proposed framework will ensure lock-in requirements are automatically enforced even if a pledge is invoked or released, thereby preventing listing delays. Consultation papers on these proposals will be issued soon,” Pandey said.
