NEW DELHI: The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has scheduled a special pre-open session on July 20 for Reliance Industries Ltd due to the demerger of its financial services business, Reliance Strategic Investments Ltd. As part of this demerger, the spun-off entity, Reliance Strategic Investments Ltd (RSIL), will undergo a name change and be renamed as Jio Financial Services (JFSL).
The objective of this session is to determine the price discovery for Reliance Industries’ shares. The difference between the share price derived during this session and the closing price of Reliance Industries on July 19 (the day prior to the ex-demerger date) will establish the ‘constant price’ at which Jio Financial will be included.
Reliance Industries will remain a constituent of the Nifty Indices even after the demerger.
Furthermore, the spun-off entity, Jio Financial Services, will be added to various Nifty indices, including Nifty 50, Nifty 100, Nifty 200, and Nifty 500, effective from July 20, as stated by NSE Indices in a Monday statement.
As a result of this demerger, there will be a total of 51 stocks available for trading on the Nifty 50 for at least three days starting from July 20, as the demerged entity becomes part of the index.
