What Sebi intends to do to protect investors from volatility in market: SC

The Supreme Court on Friday asked the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) what the capital markets regulator intends to do for ensuring the protection of investors from extreme volatility in the stock market. While hearing a batch of pleas concerning the Adani-Hindenburg row, a bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud observed one of the principal reasons which led the apex court to intervene in these petitions was the extreme volatility of stock market.

Price bands for scrip or a derivative contract represent the boundaries within which the competing orders of buyers and sellers are accepted for the day by the trading system of the stock exchange. For scrips having derivative contracts on them, these price bands are dynamic and can be flexed depending on trading during the day. In its consultation paper, Sebi has proposed that in case a share in the futures and options segment falls or rises beyond 20 per cent a day, cooling off period should be increased in a phased manner, subject to a maximum cooling-off period of one hour from the current 15 minutes at present.

Factors such as movement of global oil benchmark Brent crude and the rupee would also guide the trend in equities. Markets would remain closed on Thursday for Ram Navami. "While volatility may increase locally before the March Futures and Options (F&O) expiry, the position of major international banks will continue to play a significant role in the direction of the market globally. "The market will also keep an eye on the geopolitical situation because there is still tension between Russia and Ukraine and there is also some tension developing between the US and Syria. But, the market is not paying much attention to this.
