artificial scarcity had been created.  This cornering by the promoters is found to have facilitated price manipulations of the share of SSRCL.

4.5  Shri Hemedra Shah has allowed the use of his terminal to help in the creation of false market in the scrip of SSRCL. Further, the correspondence with BSE has revealed that he has been declared as a defaulter by the exchange administration w.e.f 23/11/1998.

4.1 It is found that YES Investment had started trading in SSRCL shares through various brokers at the instructions of promoters of the company, SSRCL in order to corner the shares.  The shares were found to have been transacted in the name of Aash Infin & Agrowth Pvt. Ltd. , Scallop Investment and Allbless Trading.  The analysis of trades by these entities show that trading done by these entities had affected the prices of the scrip which touched a high of Rs.41 per share.  I have noticed that when the BSE Sensex was falling, share price of SSRCL was showing upward movement.  The company had not even started production then and there is no justification for rise in price to the extent of Rs.41 for the maiden issue.
