The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) has announced the applicability of Short Term Additional Surveillance Measure (ST-ASM) for certain securities. The measure, effective from the next trading day, is aimed at curbing excessive price movements and protecting investor interests. Stocks under ST-ASM will face additional requirements on price bands and margin. BSE advises investors to review the full list of affected scrips on its official website.
When exchanges tighten surveillance, the debate is often about market freedom versus protection. While ST-ASM can deter manipulative trades, frequent changes in the list cause uncertainty for genuine investors. The real test is whether such measures reduce volatility without choking liquidity. A number to watch: the trading volumes of stocks before and after being placed under ST-ASM.
