Capital markets regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi), has cancelled the registrations of 39 stock brokers, seven commodity brokers, and 22 depository participants. The decision, announced on Friday, comes after these entities failed to meet the necessary registration requirements, according to Sebi’s orders. [Full list below]


Reason for registration cancellation


Sebi noted that the 39 stock brokers and seven commodity brokers had originally been granted registrations on the condition that they remain members of a recognised stock exchange. However, since these entities have been expelled as members by the stock exchanges and are no longer fulfilling the conditions under the Broker Regulations, 1992, their registrations have been cancelled.


Similarly, the 22 depository participants whose registrations were cancelled had their agreements with depositories terminated. Sebi, after being informed by the depositories, concluded that these entities no longer meet the registration requirements under the DP Regulations, 2018.


The primary reason for the cancellation of these registrations is to prevent the misuse of Sebi registration. This move is aimed at protecting investors who might otherwise be unaware of the inactive status of these intermediaries.


Despite the cancellation, Sebi emphasised that these entities are still liable for any actions they took or failed to take as stock brokers, commodity brokers, or depository participants. They are also responsible for settling any outstanding dues and interest owed to Sebi.


Next steps


In its order, Sebi said all these entities will have to “arrange for maintenance and preservation of records and other documents required to be maintained under the relevant regulations; redressal of investor grievances; transfer of records, funds or securities of its clients; continuity of service to its clients; and necessary actions concerning the defaults or pending action, if any”.
