Fraud of stock brokers will be curbed
SEBI will now implement a system of blocking funds in bank accounts for IPOs in the purchase and sale of shares already available in the stock market.

In this, the money of the investors who have applied for the issue remains in their account till the issue allocation situation is clarified while the amount is deducted from the account only after the IPO is received. In such a situation, this facility will now be optional for investors as well as stock brokers. And it aims to increase efficiency in the market environment. This will provide an opportunity to meet margin and settlement obligations, thereby requiring less working capital for members.

Fund will be blocked like IPO
In its statement, Sebi said that under the proposed framework, stockbrokers will be allowed to settle brokerage directly with UPI customers or opt for the clearing corporation’s facility to deduct the standard rate of brokerage from the customer’s UPI block. The system will be implemented in a phased manner to ensure a smooth transition to the market. The new facility will allow customers to earn interest on their ‘block’ amount till the balance in the savings account is exhausted.
