The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has recently announced a significant change in disclosure norms for foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) in the country. The regulatory body has increased the asset threshold for granular beneficial ownership disclosures from Rs 25,000 crore to Rs 50,000 crore. This means that FPIs with equity assets under management (AUM) exceeding Rs 50,000 crore in India are now required to provide detailed ownership information. The revised framework is now in effect, impacting FPIs operating in the Indian market. This move by Sebi aims to enhance transparency and regulatory compliance within the FPI sector. By raising the disclosure threshold, the regulatory body seeks to ensure a more comprehensive understanding of the ownership patterns among large FPIs. This change is expected to have a significant impact on how FPIs operate and report their ownership structures in India. FPIs that fall under the new threshold will need to adjust their disclosure practices to meet the updated requirements. Overall, this development underscores Sebi’s commitment to strengthening the regulatory framework governing FPIs and promoting transparency in the Indian financial markets.
