Glass Lewis recently provided a submission to Securities & Exchange Board of India’s (SEBI) August 2025 consultation paper on proposed amendments to the RPT regime under the SEBI (LODR) Regulations. The proposed amendments are aimed at improving proportionality and reducing compliance burdens while maintaining essential protections for minority shareholders. They also serve to codify or clarify provisions that already exist in circulars or interpretive guidance toimprove consistency and reduce ambiguity for market participants.
Given that the current volume of RPT approvals that goes to shareholders in India is extremely high, we support SEBI’s proposals to streamline processes so that oversight and scrutiny are directed toward transactions that truly warrant shareholder attention.
