Representations have been received for extending the validity of such clarification. The Circular (Number SEBI/HO/CFD/DIL1/CIR/P/2020/136) issued by SEBI on 24th July, 2020 has also been considered. In view of this, it has been decided that clarification given under para 2 of General Circular 21/2020 dated 11th May, 2020, would continue to be applicable for rights issues, in case of listed companies, opening upto 31st December, 2020.
