Stock exchanges said that the bottom 100 stocks considering the daily market capitalisation averaged in October will be brought under the new settlement system followed by 400 stocks in March. The last set of stocks will be brought under the new T+1 settlement cycle system by 27 January 2023 including large cap stocks such as RIL, HDFC Bank, Axis Bank, ITC, DRL, Titan, TCS, and Bajaj Twins.

Bourses said that any new stock making its debut after October 2021, will be added to the list based on the market capitalisation calculated on the basis of average trading price of 30 days after commencement of trading.
