Share Trading Restrictions
During the closed period, directors, designated employees, and their immediate relatives are prohibited from buying or selling Manorama Industries securities. This restriction remains in effect from April 1, 2026, until the company officially announces its audited financial results and the trading window is reopened.
Preventing Insider Trading
The trading window closure is a standard regulatory requirement under SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015. This measure is designed to prevent company insiders, such as directors and key employees, from trading shares based on unpublished price-sensitive information before it is made public. It ensures a fair market for all investors.
