The National Stock Exchange of India has offered to pay the country's markets regulator Rs 13.88 billion ($160 million) to settle a legal dispute so it can proceed with a long-delayed initial public offering, three sources said.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) on Wednesday barred former IndusInd Bank chief executive officer (CEO) Sumant Kathpalia and four other senior officials from trading in the securities market, following allegations of insider trading linked to an accounting discrepancy worth over ₹3,000 crore.

Markets regulator Sebi has allowed all non-banking financial companies (NBFC), including housing finance companies, to invest in security receipts issued by Asset Reconstruction Companies (ARCs), a move aimed at encouraging investments in the bad loans space.

Markets regulator Sebi on Wednesday said it has issued guidelines on the regulatory framework for research analysts and investment advisers to bolster investor protection and ensure transparency.
