Markets regulator
Sebi
has simplified the operational process and provided clarity on
cash flow disclosure
in the
corporate bond database
after a review of the
Request for Quote
(RFQ) Platform framework. In its latest circular, the regulator has made
yield-to-price calculation
on the RFQ platform easier. Now, only the due dates -- and not the actual payment dates -- mentioned in the cash flow schedule will be used for these calculations.
This move is aimed at streamlining and simplifying the process of trade execution on the RFQ platform.

At present, yields on debt securities are calculated using more complex methods that consider actual payment dates and required day count adjustments.
In addition to simplifying yield calculations, Sebi has introduced a requirement for mandatory cash flow disclosures in the centralised corporate bond database.

Under this, issuers will need to provide a detailed cash flow schedule -- covering interest, dividend, or redemption payments -- at the time of ISIN activation and after the securities are listed.
To maintain transparency and accuracy, this information is to be regularly updated in the database. Sebi has also mandated that any changes to the cash flow schedule must be updated within one working day.
These new regulations will be applicable to all new debt security issues starting August 18, 2025, and also to existing ISINs for their remaining maturity, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) said in its circular on Friday.
RFQ, which was launched on BSE and NSE in February 2020, is an electronic platform that enables multi-lateral negotiations to take place on a centralised online trading platform with straight-through processing of clearing and settlement to complete the trade.
A wide variety of debt securities are available for trading on the RFQ platform.

Elon Musk announces XChat: Encrypted messaging, audio & video calls and other things to know
Elon Musk has announced the launch of Chat, a new and direct messaging (DM) feature on X (formerly Twitter). Tesla CEO claims that the new XChat feature of the platform will offer Bitcoin-style encryption , disappearing messages and cross-platform audio and video calls. The move aims to address user demands for more secure and versatile private messaging capabilities within the platform. 'All new XChat is rolling out with encryption, vanishing messages and the ability to send any kind of file. Also, audio/video is built on Rust with (Bitcoin style) encryption, whole new architecture,' wrote Musk on X. How is XChat different from its rivals Elon Musk revealed that XChat is built on Rust, a programming language known for its speed and security, and employs encryption methods similar to Bitcoin's protocol to enhance privacy and data protection. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo Key features of XChat Key features of XChat include: End-to-End Encryption – Ensuring secure conversations. Vanishing Messages – Users can set timers for messages to disappear. File Sharing – Ability to send any type of file. Audio & Video Calls – Works across platforms without requiring a phone number. This addition positions X to directly compete with established messaging apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal, which already offer encrypted voice and video functionalities. The launch of XChat follows X's recent pause on encrypted DMs, signaling a complete overhaul of its messaging system. The feature is currently available to beta testers, with a wider rollout expected soon. Musk has long expressed ambitions to transform X into a multi-functional platform, integrating payments, messaging, and more—similar to China's WeChat. The introduction of XChat with these advanced features aligns with that broader goal.

Singapore remains India's top FDI source for 7th consecutive year
NEW DELHI: Singapore continued to be India's top source of foreign direct investment (FDI) for the seventh year in a row, with inflows touching $15 billion in 2024-25. Overall, overseas equity inflows rose by 13% to $50 billion during the last fiscal year. The total FDI, that included equity inflows, reinvested earnings and other capital, reached $81.04 billion during the last financial year. This marks a 14% rise from the previous year and is the highest FDI level in the last three years. Singapore's FDI contribution increased to $14.94 billion in 2024-25 from $11.77 billion in 2023-24, as per official government data. Singapore represented approximately 19 per cent of total inflows in 2024-25. Singapore has held the top position for FDI into India since 2018-19. Previously, in 2017-18, Mauritius was the leading source of such investments. The previous fiscal year saw Mauritius contributing $8.34 billion in foreign inflows. For 2024-25, other significant contributors included the US ($5.45 billion), the Netherlands ($4.62 billion), the UAE ($3.12 billion), Japan ($2.47 billion), Cyprus ($1.2 billion), the UK ($795 million), Germany ($469 million), and Cayman Islands ($371 million). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Soluções confiáveis para centros de dados IA Siemens Energy Read More Undo Specialists note that Singapore's status as an international financial centre, its strong bilateral relations with India, and its function as an access point for international private equity and venture capital contribute to its significant investment position. "Despite turmoil in the capital markets and uncertainties around trade, India has managed to attract huge investments, which are stable and long-term," Rumki Majumdar, Economist, Deloitte India told PTI. "Given that Asia is the second largest region to receive foreign capital inflows, a large part of the funds come from Singapore. There are quite a few reasons for that. One, being a low-tax jurisdiction and with a robust legal framework, Singapore is considered the strategic financial gateway to Asia," she said. The Double Tax Avoidance Agreement between both countries enables Singapore-based organisations to invest in India whilst reducing their total tax burden on Indian-earned income, Majumdar noted. These international investments are essential for India's infrastructure development, including ports, airports and highways, to stimulate growth. Additionally, FDI supports the improvement of the country's balance of payments and strengthens the rupee against other international currencies, particularly the US dollar.
