Sebi weighs higher threshold for cos with high-value debt

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) is proposing to increase the threshold for identifying high value debt listed entities (HVDLEs) from ₹1,000 crore to ₹5,000 crore. This adjustment aims to significantly reduce the compliance burden for companies, as current extensive requirements are proving costly and disproportionate, especially for non-banking finance companies.
