- There were 167 Listing Rule waivers granted in Q3 FY10, in line with the pcp but 51% lower than the previous quarter.

- 13 ASTC rule waivers were granted during the quarter - 12 to foreign-domiciled entities listed on multiple exchanges to accommodate differences in corporate action timetables prescribed by different exchanges.
