SEBI Revises Settlement Formula and Introduces Fast-Track Route for Cases Up to Rs 10 Lakh
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has introduced new regulations revising the formula for calculating settlement amounts and establishing a fast-track settlement route for cases involving amounts up to Rs 10 lakh. The updated framework separates disgorgement of wrongful gains and investor losses from the base settlement amount to avoid double counting. Settlement terms now include the settlement amount, disgorgement where applicable, and remedial and regulatory terms. The fast-track route applies based on monetary thresholds and violation types, including certain disclosure-related breaches.
