The Bombay Stock Exchange issued a circular on 17 November 2025 providing FAQs to guide listed entities on submitting financial results under Regulation 33 of the SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015 and the applicable Master Circular. The FAQs clarify submission timelines for newly listed companies, SME entities, firms whose paid-up capital crosses ₹25 crore, entities migrating from SME to Main Board, and companies listed through schemes of arrangement. Mandatory requirements include half-yearly figures for SMEs, consolidated results when subsidiaries or associates exist, and disclosures when such entities are excluded or when standalone and consolidated numbers match. All entities must report segment details, even if operating in a single segment, and disclose that last-quarter figures are balancing figures for the full year. The circular also specifies situations requiring revised XBRL filings, including mismatches, restatements, and voluntary corrections. Listed companies are advised to comply with all timelines and disclosure obligations.
