SEBI moved higher.
· ET Stocks, Economic Times Markets
Sebi has proposed a fine of ₹50,000 for each instance of non-cooperation by listed companies. Monitoring agencies would be empowered to submit reports directly to stock exchanges. Stricter enforcement measures may include freezing promoters' demat accounts. Companies are required to provide information to monitoring agencies within prescribed timelines.
The analysis
SEBI reported Rs 50,000. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Why it matters
- With SEBI involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
