SEBI Approves Key Capital Market Reforms

On 19th June 2026, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) approved a series of regulatory reforms during its 214th Board Meeting held in Mumbai to improve market efficiency, investor convenience, and regulatory compliance.

SEBI introduced the Quick Transmission Processing (QTP) category to enable faster transmission of securities for legal heirs and claimants in small-value cases with simplified documentation.
The regulator enhanced limits for simplified documentation, removed the mandatory PAN requirement in specified transmission cases, and permitted QR code-enabled death certificates for easier verification.
Securities and Exchange Board of India is the statutory regulator of India's securities market, established in 1988 and granted statutory status under the SEBI Act, 1992, to protect investors and regulate the securities market.
