Index Provider registration fees under SEBI regulations require payment and periodic renewal with specified timelines and methods. The Schedule sets the fee framework for an Index Provider: applicants must pay an application fee and a registration fee within a short period after registration; payment may be made by NEFT/RTGS/IMPS, the Board's payment gateway, or other modes the Board specifies. To maintain registration, an Index Provider must pay a recurring registration fee at triennial intervals beginning from the sixth year, payable one month before the expiry of the paid block.
