AMENDMENT TO EQUITY LISTING AGREEMENT
As per SEBI (Disclosure and Investor Protector) (DIP) Guidelines, 2000, every issuer company making a public or rights issue of more than Rs. 500 crores is required to appoint an agency to monitor the utilisation of issue proceeds. SEBI has, vide circular dated November 29, 2007 amending the SEBI (DIP) Guidelines, mandated that a monitoring agency shall henceforth be required to file
its report with the issuer company instead of with SEBI. Presently, clause 49 of Equity Listing Agreement requires the Audit Committee of an issuer company to monitor the utilisation of issue proceeds and to make appropriate recommendations to the Board of the issuer company. It has been decided to amend clause 49 of Equity Listing Agreement, requiring the issuer company to place the monitoring report filed with it before its Audit Committee. Further, every issuer company shall be required to inform material deviations in the utilisation of issue proceeds to the stock exchange and through advertisement in newspapers.
