Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in India with over Rs 25,000 crore in equity assets have either met or been exempted from additional disclosure requirements as per the Section 43B of FPI Regulations. This provision allows the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to relax regulations in case of factors beyond the control of the entities or for procedural and technical reasons. Many FPIs have applied for exemptions before the September 9 deadline. Fears of heavy selling by FPIs to avoid non-compliance seem exaggerated, as some FPIs are increasing their exposure to the Indian market to comply with the disclosure framework.
