With a lobby of FPIs trying hard to get the proposed changes to KYC norms withdrawn, market regulator Sebi Tuesday said it is "preposterous and highly irresponsible" to claim that $75 billion will move out of India because of the regulatory move.

Some foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) are believed to have earlier expressed concerns over the proposed changes in rules, for which Sebi has already granted more time.

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) has requested the markets regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) to provide access to documents based on which charges are being framed in the co-location case.

On July 4, Sebi had served fresh show cause notices to NSE and over 20 others for alleged violation of the Securities Contract Regulation Act and the Prevention of Unfair Trading Practices norms.

Markets regulator Sebi today imposed a total penalty of Rs 11 lakh on four entities for violating insider trading norms.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has levied a fine of Rs 4 lakh on Kisan Mouldings, Rs 2.5 lakh each on Surinder Jagannath Aggarwal and Polsons Traders LLP and Rs 2 lakh on Surinder Jagannath Aggarwal HUF.

Regulator Sebi is planning to broaden the scope of cybersecurity initiatives for the market infrastructure institutions (MIIs) and look into the operational modalities of their implementation in order to deal with the cyber challenges.

Enhancement of cybersecurity has been one of the priorities of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) during the financial year 2017-18.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) is looking at the prospect of allowing mutual funds (MFs) to make use of covered calls as part of their equity strategy.

Covered calls are an options strategy where an investor holds a long position in an asset and writes (sells) call options (having the right but no obligation to buy) on that same asset to generate an income stream.

Sebi today ordered Ricoh India and its directors to extend “necessary cooperation” to the auditor appointed for inspecting the books of accounts of the firm and confirmed its interim ruling in the matter, restraining several individuals from the markets “till further directions”. Through an interim order passed in February, the regulator had banned seven individuals, including Ricoh India’s former MD and CEO A T Rajan, from the securities market for alleged fraud pertaining to the distortions in the financial statements of the company.

Securities and Exchange Board of India Chairman Ajay Tyagi has said in an annual report “there are plans to consider more commodity options contracts to be launched, besides working on guidelines for index products”. Sebi will have to first finalise guidelines, which, according to sources, will suggest common standards for preparing commodity indices and later there will be regulations regarding trading.

As many as 1,677 entities, including individuals, failed to pay penalties imposed by Sebi till the end of May, according to the regulator.

The list of defaulters as on May 31, 2018 "for non-payment of penalty imposed by Sebi through orders passed up to December 31, 2017" has been published on the regulator's website on Monday.

New Delhi: As many as 1,677 entities, including individuals, failed to pay penalties imposed by Sebi till the end of May, according to the regulator.

The list of defaulters as on May 31, 2018 "for non-payment of penalty imposed by Sebi through orders passed up to December 31, 2017" has been published on the regulator's website on Monday.

A committee on fair market conduct has suggested that market regulator, Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), should seek powers to tap telephones and other electronic communication devices to check insider trading and other frauds.

Currently, Sebi has the power to only ask for call records, which includes numbers called and the duration of calls made.
