Sub: Format of Common Contract Note.
Dear Sir,
t-
This has reference to the issue of 'Common Contract Note Format' being discussed and
deliberated.
The Representatives of ANMI had been part of the joint meeting held at BSE on
6th
November, 2013. The broader issue of uniform FORMAT was finalised in the same meeting.
As the implementation of it was involving certain software and procedural changes. at
Brokers end, we were informed that the Exchanges shall jointly prepare an operational
guidance note or FAQ and circulate it in due course.
After the said meeting ANMI had neither been part of any further meetings on the subject nor
it has approached any of the Exchanges with suggestions about any further changes or
modifications in the format as decided in the said meeting.
The format as decided in the said meeting was circulated by the Exchanges on 18th
November, 2013 and we were waiting for the FAQ which was supposed to be finalised
amongst the Exchanges. Tentative Draft of FAQ was also suggested and submitted to the
committee headed by the exchanges. (Draft enclosed again herewith).
t
Upon several inquiries about the status of the FAQ during this period, on 7th of February, we
have been informed that most of the operational issues have been finalised except two
issues on which there are some divergent views. The said issues as put forth to us are STp
and giving flexibility of single contract note across all segments or more than one contract for
the day for different exchange/segment.
We hereby wish to submit our views on both these issues.
1.
STP: As the STP is largely used by the lnstitutional clients and it has several other
issues of meeting special requirements of those clients as well as certain international
protocols, we are of the view the existing format and processes of STP should be
allowed to be continued as it is.

2. As regards,
issuance of slngle contract note per investor is concerned ANMI is of tHe
view that as far as format of contract notes is conierned they must be uniform. However,
since diverse segments may have diverse closure timings, members may be given
flexibility to issue multiple contract notes per investor for the given'date for different
exchange/segment.
It is pertinent to note that there exists scope to implement it in phases and therefore, even if
initially members'are given some flexibility and afler sufficient experiences and learning of
market, further strengthening and tweaking can be undertaken. lt may also be noted that
above suggestions are made just to apprise you about the practical aspects of
implementations and we leave it up to SEBI/ Exchanges to take a final decision on it
expeditiously.
