Markets regulator Sebi is set to introduce measures to facilitate voluntary delisting of public sector undertakings (PSUs) where the government holds 90% or more shares. These measures include relaxations in delisting approval thresholds and floor price computations, addressing financial burdens due to current pricing norms. PSUs, except banks, NBFCs, and insurers, can delist at a fixed price with a 15% premium over the floor price. This initiative aims to ease delisting burdens for PSUs with minimal public float.

ICICI Securities has received approval from shareholders to delist its stock, moving closer to merging with its parent company, ICICI Bank.
