As a part of an ongoing effort to improve overall market reliability and secure the holdings of investors, SEBI and the concerned exchanges have launched a new spree of surveillance measures. This has come in the wake of a joint discussion between SEBI and the exchanges undertaken to review the existing framework of measures.

Some of the general measures include the following:

- Enhanced Surveillance Measure (ESM) Stage II: Scrips will be moved to the Trade to Trade segment with a price band of 2%. Trading will be allowed on all trading days under Periodic Call Auction.

- Graded Surveillance Measure (GSM) Stage III: Scrips will also be allowed for trading only once a week (either a Monday or the first trading day of the week) and the buyer needs to deposit an Additional Service Deposit of 100% of the trade value.

- Additional Surveillance Measure (ASM): Scrips will also go through an Insolvency Resolution Process as per the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code. These scrips too will be allowed for trading only once a week (either a Monday or the first trading day of the week)
