Explained on 26 October 2026. This is an educational answer drawn from the dated article below; examples are hypothetical unless a specific source observation is identified.

How it works

The circular’s instrument scope and settlement table must travel with the headline. It also leaves other settlement obligations unchanged. A customer-facing platform may require its own operational checks, so a market-level window should not be assumed to override an intermediary’s supported workflow.

A simple example

A hypothetical investor holds a Treasury bill and reads “bond trading extended.” Applying the corporate T+0 extension to that instrument would ignore the stated exclusion. Start with the exact security and applicable facility before using the revised hours.

What to check

  • Match the instrument to the circular’s scope.
  • Keep effective date and issue date distinct.
  • Confirm the intermediary’s supported cutoffs.
