India markets regulator allows Nifty Bank to be restructured by March 2026

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) announced a phased restructuring of key banking-sector indices — Nifty Bank, Nifty Financial Services and BSE Bankex — to reduce concentration risk linked to derivatives. Bankex and Nifty Financial Services will adjust in one tranche by December 2025, while Nifty Bank will reweight via four monthly tranches concluding by March 2026. The move is seen as enhancing market integrity and reducing manipulation risk in India’s financial markets.
