Sebi chairman hints at introducing regulated platform for pre-IPO companies

SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey announced the potential introduction of a pilot regulated platform for trading pre-IPO companies. This platform aims to enhance investor decision-making by requiring certain disclosures, thus addressing the lack of adequate pre-listing information. Designed to streamline fundraising and improve transparency, the initiative might provide a controlled alternative to the unregulated grey market, enabling investors to trade shares in the days between IPO allotment and listing.
