The Enhanced Surveillance Measure is a regulatory framework implemented by the NSE.

Stocks under Stage I and Stage II of ESM are settled through a trade-for-trade mechanism with a 100% margin. In July, the stock exchange revised the rules and allowed stocks under ESM Stage-II to trade on all days in place of once a week. The derivative products of public sector entities will be also excluded from the surveillance guidelines.
