Sebi slaps Rs 5.6L fine on 2 entities for disclosure lapses

Markets regulator Sebi today imposed a total penalty of Rs 5.60 lakh on Eduexel Infotainment and one Vinod Dugar for disclosure lapses.

According to two separate orders, Sebi has levied a fine of Rs 3 lakh on the firm for violating PIT (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations and Rs 2.60 lakh on Dugar for breaching SAST (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations.

The Sebi orders have come following investigations in the shares of Eduexel Infotainment Ltd (EIL) during the period from January to December, 2014.

According to the orders, during the quarter ended June, 2014, Dugar was holding 6.50 lakh shares or 7.68 per cent of the total share capital of EIL. Thereafter, Dugar sold over 2.48 lakh shares, or 2.94 per cent, of the total share capital of the company.
