The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has put forward a plan to reduce the compliance burden of companies with large debts, by raising the threshold 'High Value Debt Listed Entities (HVDLEs)'. Currently, any entity that has outstanding non-convertible debt securities worth Rs 500 crore or more is classified as an HVDLE. Sebi suggests increasing this threshold to Rs 1,000 crore. This change is aimed at reducing the compliance burden on these entities. Public feedback on these proposals is open until November 15, 2024.
