It is hereby informed that the clients whose KYC are not found to be validated by KRAs i.e. where the KYCs are “On Hold” for any reasons (both AADHAAR and Non- AADHAR based OVD) uploaded to the KRA from Sep 01, 2025 to Sep 30, 2025, shall neither be Permitted to Trade on the Exchange, nor will they be allowed to square up their open positions, if any, w.e.f October 27, 2025 until they comply with the validation requirements. Eventually, such open positions will naturally expire on the expiry date of the respective contract.

The list of non-validated clients as mentioned above will be provided on your designated Email ID.

All PANs that become KRA compliant subsequently, will be permitted to trade on T+1, based on the information received from KRA by the Exchange.

In view of the above, all the members are advised to take note of the same and ensure that clients whose KYCs are not found to be validated by KRAs are not permitted to trade.

Further, the members are also advised to specifically monitor the open positions, if any, of such clients and take appropriate measures to ensure compliance.

Members are requested to take note of the above.
