5. PRESERVATION OF UNPUBLISHED PRICE SENSITIVE INFORMATION

  1. All UPSI is to be handled on a “Need to Know” basis, i.e., UPSI should be disclosed only to those within the Company who need the information to discharge their duty and whose possession of such information will not give rise to a conflict of interest or likelihood of misuse of the information.
  2. To prevent the misuse of confidential information the Company adopts a ‘Chinese Wall’ procedure thereby separating those areas of the Company which routinely have access to confidential information, considered as ‘Inside Areas’ from those areas which deal with sale / marketing / investment advice or other departments providing support services, considered as ‘Public Areas’.
  3. The employees in the Inside Areas shall not communicate any UPSI to any one in Public Area. Demarcation of various departments as ‘Inside Area’ may be implemented by the Compliance Officer, in consultation with the Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
  4. In exceptional circumstances i.e., in furtherance of legitimate purposes, performance of duties or discharge of legal obligations, any Designated Person may be permitted to ‘cross the wall’ and give UPSI to any person on a ‘need to know’ basis, under intimation to the Compliance Officer.
  5. No insider shall communicate, provide, or allow access to any UPSI, relating to the Company or securities, to any person including other insiders except where such communication is in furtherance of legitimate purposes, performance of duties or discharge of legal obligations.
  6. No person shall procure from or cause the communication by any insider of UPSI, relating to the Company or securities, except in furtherance of legitimate purposes, performance of duties or discharge of legal obligations.
  7. However, UPSI may be communicated, provided, allowed access to or procured, in connection with a transaction which:
  • entails an obligation to make an open offer under the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011, as amended (“SEBI Takeover Regulations”), where the Board of the Company is of informed opinion that the proposed transaction is in the best interests of the Company; or
  • does not attract the obligation to make an open offer under the SEBI Takeover Regulations but where the Board of the Company is of the informed opinion that the proposed transaction is in the best interests of the Company and the information that constitutes UPSI is disseminated to be made generally available at least two trading days prior to the proposed transaction being effected in such form as the Board may determine to be adequate and fair to cover all relevant and material facts.

Note: For the above purposes, the Board shall require the parties to execute agreements to contract confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations on the part of such parties and such parties shall keep information so received confidential, except for the purpose of this clause and shall not otherwise trade in securities of the Company when in possession of UPSI.

  1. Files containing confidential information shall be kept secure. Computer files must have adequate security of login and password etc.
  2. The Board shall ensure that a Structured Digital Database is maintained containing the nature of Unpublished Price Sensitive Information. Such database shall not be outsourced and shall be maintained internally with adequate internal controls and checks such as time stamping to ensure non-tampering of the database.

Provided that entry of information in Structured Digital Database, not emanating from within the Company, may be done not later than 2 calendar days from the receipt of such information.

  1. The Board shall ensure that the Structured Digital Database is preserved for a period of not less than eight years after completion of the relevant transactions.

6. PREVENTION OF MISUSE OF UNPUBLISHED PRICE SENSITIVE INFORMATION

Trading Plan:

An Insider shall be entitled to formulate a trading plan and present it to the Compliance Officer for approval and may be carried public disclosure pursuant to which trades out on his behalf in accordance with such plan. This gives an option to persons who may be perpetually in possession of Unpublished Price Sensitive Information and enabling them to trade in securities in a compliant manner.

  3. either specific date or time period not exceeding five consecutive trading days;
  4. price limit, that is an upper price limit for a buy trade and a lower price limit for a sell trade, subject to the range as specified below:

  6. for a sell trade: the lower price limit shall be between the closing price on the day before submission of the trading plan and upto twenty per cent lower than such closing price; and
  • not entail trading in securities for market abuse.

The Compliance officer shall review the trading plan to assess whether the plan would have any potential for violation of the Insider Trading Regulations. The Compliance Officer shall be entitled to seek such express undertakings as may be necessary to enable such assessment and to approve and monitor the implementation of the plan.

The Trading Plan once approved shall be irrevocable and the Insider shall mandatorily have to implement the plan, without being entitled to either execute any trade in the securities outside the scope of the trading plan or to deviate from it except due to permanent incapacity or bankruptcy or operation of law. 

The implementation of the trading plan shall not be commenced, if at the time of formulation of the plan, the Insider is in possession of any UPSI and the said information has not become generally available at the time of the commencement of implementation. If the insider has set a price limit for a trade as described above, the insider shall execute the trade only if the execution price of the security is within such limit. If price of the security is outside the price limit set by the insider, the trade shall not be executed. The Compliance Officer shall confirm that the commencement of the Plan shall be deferred until such UPSI becomes generally available information. Further, the Insider shall also not be allowed to trade in securities of the Company, if the date of trading in securities of the Company, as per the approved Trading Plan, coincides with the date of closure of Trading Window announced by the Compliance Officer.
