On Thursday, BSE said that since the stock has hit lower circuit limit for two consecutive days -- Thursday and Friday -- the removal of the company from all the S&P BSE indices will be postponed by another three days.
"JFSL will now be removed from all the S&P BSE indices effective prior to the open of trading on Friday, September 1," the bourse said.

Asia Index Private Ltd had earlier announced that effective prior to the opening of trading on Tuesday, August 29, JFSL will be removed from all the S&P BSE indices following its listing on Monday, August 21, due to its spin-off from its parent, Reliance Industries.
Asia Index is a joint venture between BSE and S&P Dow Jones indices.
Reliance Industries demerged its financial services undertaking into Reliance Strategic Investments Ltd, which was renamed as JFSL.
