2.3             I note that adequate opportunity had been given to the said broker in terms of Regulation 16 of the enquiry regulations and that he has chosen not to avail such opportunity. Therefore, I am satisfied that the requirements of natural justice have been fulfilled and I proceed further in the matter.

3.1.3      I note that the enquiry officer in his report has found that since MSE has declared the said broker a defaulter for non payment of dues to be exchange, SEBI and investors and since the said broker has ceased to be a member of the exchange w.e.f. 10.12.2001, his certificate of registration is liable to be cancelled.

terms of Regulation 15(c) of the enquiry regulations it is not necessary to hold an enquiry under the provisions of Regulation 13 where a stock broker ceases to be a member of a recognized stock exchange or has been declared defaulter in relation to the transactions at such exchange, rather, summary procedure under Regulation 16 may be followed. However, Regulation 13(6) of the enquiry regulations provides that the Board or member shall impose major penalties where the intermediary is guilty of violation of conditions of registration.
