Sebi eases securities transfer, introduces TLH code; simplifies nominee-to-legal heir process
SEBI has introduced a simplified framework for transferring securities from a nominee to a legal heir, aiming to reduce tax and compliance burdens. A new reporting code, 'TLH,' will be implemented from January 1, 2026, ensuring these transfers are correctly reported and not taxed as capital gains. This move streamlines the asset transition process, benefiting legal heirs.
