Research Analysts and Research Entities need not maintain call recordings of interactions with institutional-investor clients. They must nevertheless maintain legally verifiable records of service-related interactions with all clients and prospective clients, including fee-paying and non-fee-paying clients, from first contact until completion of research services. Permitted records include signed physical records, call recordings, registered-email communications, SMS records and other legally verifiable evidence; call recordings are also unnecessary where email or another medium provides a digital footprint. KYC procedures and records remain required for fee-paying clients. Interaction records must be retained for five years, or longer until dispute resolution or as required by SEBI. The changes apply from November 8, 2026.
