Key Details of the Funding

Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd has closed its trading window for designated persons and their immediate relatives effective July 1, 2026, to prevent insider trading ahead of its financial results. The closure is in compliance with SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015, and applies to the purchase or sale of the company’s securities. The window will remain shut until 48 hours after the declaration of the unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

The restriction covers designated persons as defined under Regulation 9(4) of the SEBI (PIT) Regulations, 2015, and their immediate relatives, including spouses, parents, siblings, and children who are financially dependent or consult them on trading decisions. The list of designated employees is determined based on their role, function, and access to unpublished price-sensitive information, in addition to seniority and professional designation.

The purpose of the trading window closure is to ensure compliance during the consideration and approval of the unaudited reviewed financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. The company secretary, Ratan Mani Sumit, issued the notice confirming the timeline.

The move aligns with the company’s internal code of conduct for the prevention of insider trading, which mandates such closures during periods involving material financial disclosures.
