Zephyr Renewables Ltd, an Indian-promoted company, has its equity shares listed on an exchange in GIFT IFSC under the IFSCA (Listing) framework. It wants to understand its continuing obligations. Which statement best describes the position of a listed entity?

A listed entity must make timely, continuing disclosure of material and price-sensitive events to the recognised exchange. Listing is not a one-time event; ongoing disclosure keeps investors informed, and it is not limited to AGMs, exchange queries or debt issuers.

Explanation

Listing creates ongoing obligations. A listed entity must disclose material and price-sensitive events promptly to the exchange so that investors are informed. Limiting disclosure to the AGM or to exchange queries defeats the purpose of continuous disclosure, and the obligations apply to equity-listed entities as well.
