The closure will remain in force until 48 hours after the declaration of the company's un-audited financial results for the quarter and half year ending September 30, 2026. This period covers Q2FY27 and H1FY27.

Compliance and Timeline

The company notified BSE Limited of this action on September 30, 2026. The regulatory framework mandates such closures to prevent insider trading during sensitive periods preceding financial disclosures.

Until that announcement is made, the exact duration of the blackout beyond the minimum 48-hour post-declaration period remains dependent on the scheduling of the board meeting.
