Sebi sends notice to NSE on alleged misuse of trading software – sebi sends notice to nse on alleged misuse of trading software


Mumbai – The Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has issued a show cause notice to the country’s largest capital market – the National Stock Exchange (NSE). It is alleged that some traders dealing in large number of shares manipulated its software to undetect many orders, and also displaced other users from the system. The TAP software scam first came to light in 2013. But four years later, the authority uncovered the case during an investigation into another scam by income tax officials. This led to SEBI’s recent intervention.

Sebi has sought an explanation from the NSE that a growing number of share traders had tampered with the software to settle thousands of orders. This automatically reduces the number of willing investors through the system without this matter coming to light.

In 2013, the alleged misuse of TAP (Trading Access Point) software was discovered by Revenue officials during an investigation into a co-location scam. In this, former NSE chief Chitra Ramakrishna and Ravi Narayan were mentioned by the investigating agency as guilty. The action process in this regard is currently going on at the court level.

SEBI has also cracked down on some broker companies, individuals who are trading shares in the last few days. Especially through popular social media such as Telegram, WhatsApp, share buying or selling tips are being traded on this platform. During this action, the market regulatory body has claimed that due to such tips, investors are misled and sometimes suffer losses. The persons doing such transactions, their companies and the mobiles from which they handle social media platforms are all being disclosed by SEBI from time to time.
