To protect the people and the retail investors, SEBI regulations provide that an anchor investor, known to be a qualified foreign institutional buyer, is not permitted to exchange their shares until 30 days after the listing. The securities market regulator proposed an anchor investor lock-in of 90 days last month.

It stated that the Primary Market Advisory Committee (PMAC) believed that rather than exceeding the lock-in term for all anchor investors by 30 days, only those who agreed to a 90-day lock-in period or a longer one should receive half of the anchor book.

“It is believed that giving Anchor Investors a more extended lock-in period will provide other investors help. Therefore, it could be necessary to reassess the anchor investor lock-in period, SEBI stated in a report released on November 16.
