PMC Fincorp Limited, in adherence to regulatory frameworks mandated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), has announced the closure of its trading window for designated persons and their immediate relatives. The trading window will remain closed from Tuesday, July 1, 2025, and will stay closed until 48 hours after the conclusion of the Board Meeting in which the Unaudited Standalone Financial Results for the quarter ending June 30, 2025, are to be approved and considered.

This announcement comes under the purview of SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015, as amended, and the company's internal Code of Conduct for Prevention of Insider Trading and Unfair Trade Practices related to the Securities Market. The intent is to ensure full compliance and uphold the integrity of financial disclosures.

Understanding the Trading Window Closure

A trading window is a designated period when insiders—typically senior executives, promoters, and key employees who may have access to price-sensitive information—are restricted from buying or selling shares of the company. This mechanism is crucial in ensuring that no insider trading or market manipulation takes place based on unpublished price-sensitive information (UPSI).

In the case of PMC Fincorp Limited, the window is being closed in advance of the company’s Q1 results, which is a standard corporate governance practice. The trading window will reopen 48 hours post the declaration and disclosure of the results to the stock exchange, ensuring there is a fair dissemination of information to the public and shareholders.

Who Will Be Affected by the Trading Window Closure?

The closure is applicable to all Designated Persons and their Immediate Relatives. This includes:

• Board members (Executive and Non-Executive)

• Senior management

• Employees of the finance and accounts department

• Internal auditors

• Consultants, if any, who have access to UPSI

• Immediate family members such as spouses, children, and dependent parents

All such individuals have been explicitly advised not to engage in trading the company’s securities during the window closure period.

Legal Framework Behind This Compliance

The trading window closure is in strict compliance with:

• Regulation 9(1) and 9(2) of SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015

• Clause 4 of Schedule B of the same regulation, which mandates that no trading shall be done during the restricted period.

• The Company’s own Insider Trading Code, which is aligned with the SEBI framework and regularly updated.

Any violation of these guidelines is a punishable offense, which may attract monetary penalties, legal action, or debarment from market activities by SEBI.

Financial Results: What to Expect

While the exact date for the Board Meeting to consider the unaudited financial results for the quarter ending June 30, 2025, has not yet been declared, PMC Fincorp Limited confirmed that the date will be communicated in due course.

Historically, the company has maintained a timeline of releasing its quarterly results within 30 to 45 days of the quarter’s end, in accordance with the Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements (LODR).

Given market expectations, investors and analysts will be closely watching this Q1 report to assess:

• Revenue growth and loan book expansion

• Net profit and operating margins

• Asset quality, particularly Gross and Net NPA levels

• Any strategic announcements on future lending or diversification

Importance of Timely Disclosure

This notice serves as a transparent communication to all market participants, underlining PMC Fincorp’s commitment to fair corporate governance and compliance with statutory obligations. It reinforces the company's reputation as a financial institution operating with transparency and accountability.

The closure of the trading window is a precautionary measure rather than a reflection of performance—signaling the company’s adherence to best practices in regulatory compliance. In an age where insider trading can draw sharp penalties, this proactive disclosure helps build investor confidence and ensures a level playing field.

Role of Compliance Officer

The official communication has been made by Mr. Kailash, Company Secretary and Compliance Officer of PMC Fincorp Limited, holding Membership No. ACS 51199. His responsibility includes:

• Overseeing insider trading compliance

• Ensuring timely filings with BSE

• Managing investor communication

• Coordinating disclosures as per LODR and SEBI norms

Next Steps

The Board Meeting date will be intimated shortly, at which the financial results for Q1 of FY2025-26 will be taken up for discussion and approval. Following that, the financial results will be submitted to the BSE and published on the company’s website.

Only after these disclosures are made and a cooling-off period of 48 hours has lapsed, will the trading window reopen.

Conclusion

The trading window closure by PMC Fincorp Limited, effective from July 1, 2025, is a standard, proactive move in line with SEBI regulations and company policy. It ensures no insider trading activity occurs before the public disclosure of sensitive financial information. By notifying the stock exchanges well in advance, the company has once again reiterated its commitment to transparency, corporate governance, and shareholder interests.

Stakeholders are advised to stay tuned for further updates regarding the upcoming Board Meeting and Q1 Financial Results, which will be a key metric for evaluating the company’s operational momentum in the current fiscal year.
