A-One Steels India Ltd Adopts Code of Corporate Disclosure Practices
A-One Steels India Limited has adopted a Code of Corporate Disclosure Practices as per SEBI regulations. The code designates a Chief Investor Relations Officer to manage and disseminate Unpublished Price Sensitive Information (UPSI). It also outlines procedures for responding to market rumors and sharing UPSI for legitimate business purposes.
This is a standard regulatory compliance document and does not involve any new business initiatives, financial results, or significant corporate actions that would have a material impact on the company's operations or stock.
The announcement is a routine compliance filing regarding the adoption of a corporate disclosure code. It does not contain any information that would directly impact the company's financial performance or stock price in the short term.
A-One Steels India Limited has officially adopted a Code of Corporate Disclosure Practices, in compliance with Regulation 8 of the SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015. This code, designed to ensure timely, adequate, uniform, and universal dissemination of information, particularly Unpublished Price Sensitive Information (UPSI), has been uploaded to the company's website at https://www.aonesteelgroup.com/investors and submitted to the BSE and NSE.
The Code designates a Chief Investor Relations Officer (CIRO) responsible for overseeing and coordinating the disclosure of UPSI to analysts, shareholders, and the media, and for educating employees on disclosure policies. The CIRO will ensure that information shared with analysts and research personnel is not UPSI and that guidelines for disclosing UPSI are followed when interacting with the media and the public. All disclosures of UPSI, unless required by law, must be marked to the CIRO for approval before dissemination.
The Code also outlines procedures for responding to market rumors, ensuring that queries from regulatory authorities are directed to the CIRO, who will then consult with the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer to formulate an appropriate response. Furthermore, it details guidelines for sharing UPSI with analysts and institutional investors, emphasizing that only public information should be shared unless the CIRO approves the dissemination of UPSI. The company will ensure that any UPSI provided to analysts is made public simultaneously. The policy also includes provisions for legitimate purposes, defining circumstances under which UPSI can be shared in the ordinary course of business, such as with partners, collaborators, lenders, and advisors, provided it does not circumvent the regulations. A detailed 'Policy on Determination of Legitimate Purpose' is also included as an annexure, effective from December 23, 2024, which elaborates on the circumstances under which sharing UPSI is considered legitimate, including interactions with statutory authorities, court proceedings, contractual obligations, and business development initiatives. The company will maintain a record of persons with whom UPSI is shared and conduct periodic system audits.
