National Stock Exchange of India Ltd Board of Directors has authorized its Key Managerial Personnel (KMP) to determine the materiality of events and make necessary disclosures to stock exchanges. This move complies with Regulation 30(5) of the SEBI Listing Regulations.
The authorization empowers specific senior executives to assess whether information is material enough to warrant immediate disclosure. This streamlines the compliance process by delegating the initial assessment to designated officers rather than requiring board-level review for every potential event.

| Name | Designation |
|---|---|
| Ashishkumar Chauhan | Managing Director & CEO |
| Ian Desouza | Chief Financial Officer |
