IDX Poised to Slash Minimum Share Price Limit to Rp1
Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) plans to adjust the minimum price limit for shares traded from Rp50 to Rp1.
The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) is considering lowering the minimum share price limit from the current Rp50 to a more affordable Rp1 per share. This move aims to increase market liquidity and improve price discovery. Jeffrey Hendrik, the IDX President Director, mentioned that the policy discussion with market players and global investors took place on August 19.
The minimum share price limit change would allow shares currently priced at Rp50 to be traded within a wider price range. If implemented, the transaction frequency and value could increase two to three times as shares currently traded on the Special Monitoring Board could enter the regular market through a continuous auction mechanism.
The IDX also plans to adjust the auto-rejection limits, with shares priced between Rp1 and Rp10 using a limit of Rp1 based on nominal value. The changes are expected to be implemented starting September 7, 2026.
