Sebi Bars Trafiksol ITS and Promoters for One Year Over Misleading IPO Disclosures
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has barred Trafiksol ITS Technologies and its promoters, Jitendra Narayan Das and Poonam Das, from the securities market for one year due to misleading disclosures and concealment of material facts in the company's SME IPO. Sebi imposed penalties totaling Rs 1.05 crore and directed Trafiksol to refund investors and cancel allotted shares. The IPO, which raised Rs 44.87 crore, was deferred after concerns about the use of proceeds for software purchases from Oasis Corpcare, a shell entity.
