No. Actually it is very easy to remember. All shares with no numbers behind them are traded in broad lot of 1,000 shares. Shares with a number behind them are traded in broad lot of that number. So SBSTransit 500 are traded in lot of 500 shares and DairyFarm 900 US$ are traded in lot of 900 shares (and this one is traded in US$).
QED. But I still dun know why people get confused.
