Summary
Sebi has approved the reintroduction of share buy-backs through the open market route, effective from 1 August 2026. The new framework reduces buy-back timelines and prohibits promoter participation. This follows the Finance Minister's Budget 2026 announcement on changes to buy-back taxation, and comes after several companies conducted buy-backs through the tender route in April-May 2026. The Sebi board reviewed the process based on the revised tax framework and stakeholder feedback.
