The securities which are placed under the framework are reviewed on bi-monthly (two months) or periodical basis for the applicability of the ASM. “Also, it may also be noted that the shortlisting of securities under aforesaid framework is purely on account of market surveillance and it should not be construed as an adverse action against the concerned company/ entity,” the BSE said.
