India, July 7 -- The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has notified new regulations allowing listed companies to undertake share buybacks through the open market from August 1, 2026.
Under the revised framework, companies can repurchase their shares through the regular stock exchange trading mechanism without the need for a dedicated buyback window. However, the buyback process must be completed within 66 working days.
The move is aimed at providing greater flexibility and improving execution efficiency, while making share buybacks a more effective capital allocation tool for listed companies.
