Trading window

    ESG & Governance

    The period during which a company's designated persons are allowed to trade in its shares.

    Under SEBI's insider trading rules, the trading window closes from the end of each quarter until 48 hours after the quarterly results are published, and at other times when designated persons are likely to hold unpublished price sensitive information. Directors, key managers and other designated persons, and their relatives, cannot trade while the window is closed, except under a pre-disclosed trading plan.
