IFSCA Panel Proposes Direct Listing at GIFT City

The International Financial Services Centre Authority (IFSCA) has set its sights on streamlining the process for direct listings at Gujarat International Finance Tec-City (GIFT City). In a recent development, the IFSCA panel has recommended crucial changes to the regulatory framework, aiming to make GIFT City a more attractive destination for companies looking to go public.
The proposed measures seek to simplify and expedite the listing process for businesses in GIFT City's capital markets. This move could potentially unlock significant opportunities for domestic and international companies to raise capital directly, bypassing the traditional route of listing on Indian stock exchanges.
The IFSCA's initiative aligns with GIFT City's broader vision of becoming a global financial hub. It is expected to boost investor confidence and attract a broader range of businesses, including startups and tech firms, to list their shares at GIFT City. By facilitating direct listings, the IFSCA aims to position GIFT City as a competitive player in the international financial landscape, ultimately fostering economic growth and job creation.
These recommendations signal a progressive step towards establishing GIFT City as a prominent financial centre and may contribute to India's broader economic transformation.
