What the reporting says

SEBI's CAS new rule could help brokerages with higher trading activity by restoring the final 30-minute continuous-session VWAP for derivatives settlement, according to experts cited in Mint's market note. The summary says the regulator made the move to restore that settlement method. It does not state which brokerages may benefit most or whether the rule changes trading volumes immediately.

Why it matters

SEBI's CAS rule change restores the final 30-minute continuous-session VWAP for derivatives settlement, and experts said brokerages with higher trading activity may benefit. The summary points to a possible lift for active brokerage businesses, but it does not identify winners or quantify the effect. For investors, the key issue is whether the rule change improves volumes or revenues at brokerages.
