Relaxation of listing requirements permitted where Central Government seeks regulatory flexibility for strategic disinvestment, subject to investor protection. A new sub regulation inserted into regulation 102 authorises the Board to relax strict enforcement of any requirement of the Listing Regulations if the Central Government applies in relation to its strategic disinvestment in a listed entity, provided the Board, after due consideration of the interest of investors and the securities market and for the development of the securities market, grants such relaxation.
