Sebi extends auto trading window rules to kin of designated persons

Markets regulator Sebi on Monday extended its automated trading window closure mechanism to include immediate relatives of designated persons (DPs) in listed companies, ahead of the declaration of financial results. This move aims to prevent inadvertent non-compliance with insider trading norms by ensuring that those who may have access to unpublished price-sensitive information (UPSI) such as quarterly results are prohibited from trading during specific periods. Earlier, the restriction applied only to DPs. Now, Sebi has extended the scope to cover their immediate relatives as well, according to its circular. As per Sebi's definition, an immediate relative includes a spouse, and also a parent, sibling, or child (of the person or the spouse), provided they are financially dependent or consult the person in decisions related to trading in securities. This move follows a system already in place for DPs, which uses PAN-based trading freeze. To ensure a smooth rollout, the implementa

A post office littered with parcels of the dead and missing, a special police unit deployed to stop 'selfie tourists' and patrols to check thefts in abandoned houses is all that remains in the three Wayanad villages that were wiped off during the deadly landslides that occurred exactly a month ago.
