Mumbai: With an aim to ensure market safety, leading bourse National Stock Exchange (NSE) on Monday said it will shift 15 scrips, including Indiabulls Wholesale Services and Subex to restricted trading category from Friday.
Among other scrips, which would be shifted to the trade- to-trade segment include Asian Electronics, Glodyne Technoserve, Petron Engineering Construction, Shyam Telecom, Indosolar, MIRC Electronics and Wanbury.

Also, the exchange has advised exercise of caution while trading in these scrips.
"Trading members should note that the transfer of scrips for trading and settlement on a trade-to-trade basis is purely on account of market surveillance measure and it should not be construed as an adverse action against the company," NSE said.
