The National Stock Exchange of India has fixed May 25, 2026, for an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders, as per news reports. The meeting will be held through video conferencing.
Shareholders on record as of May 18 will be eligible to vote. Remote e-voting will be available from May 22 to May 24, with an option to cast votes during the meeting.
One of the resolutions relates to changes in the exchange’s Articles of Association. The revisions aim to align internal rules with provisions under the Companies Act and regulatory requirements prescribed by SEBI.
The updated structure is intended to reflect norms applicable to companies seeking listing on stock exchanges.
These changes will come into effect only after completion of regulatory approvals and related processes.
The exchange has proposed increasing the aggregate holding limit for non-resident Indians and overseas citizens of India from 10% to 24% of paid-up equity share capital.
The proposed limit is within the ceiling allowed under foreign exchange regulations administered by the Reserve Bank of India.
The cap on individual holdings for such investors will remain unchanged at 5%.
The EGM forms part of the exchange’s ongoing preparations for a public listing. The company had earlier received a no-objection certificate from SEBI.
Its board has approved an Initial Public Offering (IPO) structured as an offer for sale by existing shareholders.
In its explanatory statement, the exchange indicated that listing would enable shareholders to trade equity shares through a recognised platform.
