The Indian stock market will see a rush of lock-in expiries between May 26 and August 31 this year, with shares of 70 newly-listed companies worth $35 billion becoming eligible for trade when their mandatory shareholder lock-in periods expire, according to Nuvama Alternative & Quantitative Research.
The value represents the worth of the total number of shares freeing up for trade after lock-in periods of different time frames expire. However, it is worth noting that this only implies that they will become eligible for trade and doesn't imply that they will necessarily be sold in the secondary market.
