SHANGHAI- China's securities regulator on Thursday approved China Mobile's application to list in Shanghai, clearing the last hurdle for a potential $6 billion share sale.

China Mobile 0941.HK , which was delisted by the New York Stock Exchange due to U.S. investment restrictions, approved its Shanghai listing plan in May.
