Securities litigation and enforcement is a complex and evolving area of law that involves various regulators, such as the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), the Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT), the stock exchanges and other judicial fora. SEBI is one of the most powerful regulators in India, with a range of enforcement tools at its disposal, such as imposing monetary penalties, ordering disgorgement of unlawful gains, restricting companies from raising capital and market participants from participating in the capital market.

Our law firm has extensive experience in representing clients before SEBI, SAT and other authorities in matters pertaining to market manipulation and price rigging, issue-related manipulation, insider trading, takeovers and other matters. Some of the cases that we have handled or are handling are:

• We represented a leading company in the pharmaceutical sector in a SEBI investigation into alleged insider trading by its promoters and directors. We successfully defended our client before SEBI and SAT, and obtained a favourable order quashing the allegations and revoking the interim directions issued by SEBI.
• We are representing a prominent investment bank in a SEBI investigation into alleged violation of disclosure norms under the takeover regulations. We are assisting our client in responding to SEBI's queries and submissions, and preparing for a possible adjudication proceeding.
• We are advising a reputed mutual fund house in a SEBI inquiry into alleged mis-selling of debt schemes to investors. We are helping our client in complying with SEBI's directions and safeguarding its interests.
• We are acting for a well-known e-commerce company in a SEBI probe into alleged irregularities in its initial public offering (IPO). We are advising our client on various aspects of the IPO process, including due diligence, disclosures, allotment and listing.

These are just some examples of the cases that we have handled or are handling in the field of securities litigation and enforcement. We have also represented clients in other matters such as oppression and mismanagement, shareholder disputes, corporate governance issues, etc. Our team of lawyers has exceptional depth of knowledge and expertise in this area of law, and is committed to providing high-quality legal services to our clients.
