The regulator has asked the issue managers concerned to maintain a 15-day deadline while issuing the shares for the migrant workers. “The interested migrant workers will have to pay the subscription amount through the remittance saving account maintained in banks, which are members of the Application Supported by Blocked Amount (ASBA) system,” reads the guideline.
