Brokerage firm ICICI Securities on Monday charged settlement charges of Rs. 40.2 lakh after settling a case with capital markets regulator Sebi regarding alleged violations of stockbroker rules. The order came after ICICI Securities proposed to settle the matter “without admitting or denying the facts and conclusions of law” through a settlement order.

“In view of the acceptance of the terms of the settlement… the judgment proceedings initiated against the petitioner (ICICI Securities) vide show cause notice (SCN) dated May 17, 2024 are disposed of in terms of the terms of the settlement,” SEBI adjudicating officer Amit said. Kapoor said.

The order comes after the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) initiated adjudication proceedings against ICICI Securities for alleged violations of stockbrokers regulations.

Subsequently, the market watchdog issued a show cause notice to the petitioner for the alleged violation on May 17, 2024.

The SCN alleged that the petitioner had failed to monitor its Authorized Person (AP), as the trading terminals of the five users allotted to the AP were being operated from unknown locations, which were not reported to the Exchange.
