The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has written to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to explore the possibility of mutual fund schemes being granted an ongoing window to meet liquidity needs.

Such windows have previously been made available to mutual funds during times when the industry has faced a severe cash crunch. The stock market regulator has invited the central bank's feedback on whether such a repo window can be used to provide stability on an ongoing basis in addition to in times of such crises.

Unearthing a major case of insider trading in the shares of L&T Finance Holdings (LTFH), the Securities & Exchange Board of India (Sebi) on Thursday barred Factorial Master Fund, a Cayman Islands-based hedge fund, from the Indian securities markets. The role of other entities, including some employees of investment banking major Credit Suisse, is also under the regulator's scanner.

PUBLIC shareholding norms for public sector companies would be brought on a par with their private sector peers, said Sebi chairman UK Sinha, which would unlock sizeable funds for the government with estimates suggesting the cache could be in the order of Rs 50,000 crore.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) is likely to announce a series of changes to the initial public offering (IPO) framework, to help issuers and boost investor participation. Among the changes planned are removal of the Rs 4,000-crore minimum size criterion and an enhanced quota for the so-called anchor investors.

Doing away with certain requirements related to short selling, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) on Tuesday eased norms for entities trading in the securities lending and borrowing (SLB) segment.
