AO order in the matter of M/s Axis Bank Limited
SEBI had received a complaint against Axis Bank Limited (Noticee) stating that the Noticee had traded in the shares of KSK Energy Venture Ltd. (KEVL) and KSK Energy Venture Ltd (BRFL) at the time when it was acting as a Merchant Banker for the open offer of KEVL and BRFL under SEBI (SAST) Regulations, 1997 (SAST Regulations) and initiated the adjudicating proceedings against the Noticee for violation under SEBI (PIT) Regulations, 1992, SEBI (SAST) Regulations, 1997 and SEBI (Merchant Bankers) Regulations, 1992. After investigation and considering the submissions made by the Noticee, AO does not find any conclusive evidence in respect of the above mentioned alleged violations against the Noticee and therefore a benefit of doubt has been given to the Noticee.
