This makes CSE the first stock exchange in South India to get Sebi clearance for introducing the revised badla system.CSE president Oommen Issen told The Financial Express here on Monday that the bourse would kick-start the revised badla system in a couple of days. He said the exchange is in the process of working out the modalities and would finalise it shortly.
He said the exchange has to categorise the scrips into A group and B group. Besides, the bourse also has to decide about the number of scrips being included in each category.
