Anubhav Ghosh on Sebi settlement norms overhaul – Trilegal

This is a link enhanced version of the article that first appeared in  Business Standard.

Article Overview:

The article examines Sebi’s approved overhaul of its settlement framework, which introduces changes to the calculation of settlement amounts, separate treatment and disgorgement of wrongful gains, pre-show-cause settlement notices, a fast-track settlement route and a one-time 90-day window for certain pending proceedings.
