SEBI Reduces Minimum Investment in SSE to ₹1,000:
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has reduced the minimum investment amount for Zero Coupon Zero Principal (ZCZP) instruments on the Social Stock Exchange (SSE) from ₹10,000 to ₹1,000. This decision, based on recommendations from the Social Stock Exchange Advisory Committee, aims to enhance retail participation and increase funding for non-profit organizations (NPOs). The move is expected to channel more capital into sectors such as education and healthcare, strengthening India’s social impact investment framework. The change modifies SEBI’s previous directive from September 19, 2022, and comes into effect immediately.
