Start-ups want markets regulator Sebi to ease minimum institutional ownership criteria to qualify for launching an initial public offering (IPO). Currently, regulations mandate a company to have a 50% institutional ownership in order to launch an IPO.

However, many small start-ups are funded by angel investors who don’t qualify as institutional investors as per the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi).

The disclosure of details of assets and liabilities of SEBI chief U.K. Sinha can cause “unwarranted invasion of privacy”, the Central Information Commission (CIC) has said.

Hearing a four-year old case, a full-bench of CIC has overturned its earlier order in which it had directed that the disclosure be done in larger public interest.

Market regulator Sebi directed the National Stock Exchange Clearing Corporation (CC) to refund around Rs 250 crore of clearing members’ contribution that they had made to the core Settlement and Guarantee Fund (SGF). The exchange refunded the money to these members a few days ago.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) found that based on the daily stress test as per its new norms, NSE CC has enough funds and the contribution from the clearing members was not required.

Indian markets regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has put in place a stricter know your customer (KYC) and disclosure regime for participatory notes (P-Notes) to make it tougher to use these offshore instruments without disclosing the money-trail and details of their users.

To make start-up listing platform more attractive, regulator Sebi plans to relax norms by next month to help them tap this avenue for raising funds as also to give an easier exit opportunity to their existing investors including from abroad.

The platform is aimed at providing easier exit options for angel investors, domestic and foreign venture capital funds and private equity players, who have invested in over 3,000 start-ups, including in new technology space, in India.
