SEBI Cancels Registrations of 25 Research Analysts for Non-Payment of Renewal Fees
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has cancelled the registrations of 25 research analysts, including Karvy Stock Broking, for failing to pay mandatory renewal fees required every five years. Notices were issued in February 2025 and May 2026, but none of the entities provided evidence to contest the non-payment. SEBI stated the cancellations aim to prevent misuse of expired certificates, though the entities remain liable for past actions under the regulations.
