Dates that have no deadline
- Half-yearly cloud software undertakingNo due date publishedIf you run your practice on cloud tools, you confirm compliance with SEBI's Software as a Service advisory, in SEBI's own prescribed sentence. SEBI has never published a due date for this one, so treat it as falling with your half-yearly report.
