SEBI has established a regulatory framework for retail investor participation in algorithmic trading, effective August 1, 2025. The framework mandates brokers to act as principals while algo providers serve as agents. All algo orders via APIs must carry unique Exchange-provided identifiers. Retail investors' self-developed algos require Exchange registration if exceeding specified order thresholds. The directive categorizes algos into White Box (disclosed logic) and Black Box (undisclosed logic) types, with additional Research Analyst registration requirements for Black Box providers. Brokers must implement two-factor authentication, OAuth-based security, and handle all algo-related grievances. Exchanges will supervise algo trading through comprehensive SOPs, surveillance mechanisms, and kill switch capabilities. Implementation standards will be formulated by April 1, 2025, through the Broker's Industry Standards Forum.
