Adjudication Order in respect of Jayant Indulal Sethna in the matter of Dhenu Buildcon Infra Ltd., Page 3 of 15 4. Pursuant to carrying out Last Traded Price (LTP) analysis, it was observed that Jayant Indulal Sethna (hereinafter referred to as “Noticee”) found to have indulged in price manipulation in the scrip of DBIL by trading above LTP, by placing sell orders for only 1 share in various transactions and repeatedly executed such orders on various days. Thus, it was alleged that the Noticee had contributed to price rise in the scrip of DBIL with each of his trades and thereby created a misleading appearance of trading in the scrip. Therefore, it was alleged that the Noticee had violated the provisions of Regulation 3 (a) (b) (c) (d) Regulation 4 (1), 4(2)(a) and (e) of SEBI (Prohibition of Fraudulent Trade Practices Relating to Securities Market) Regulations, 2003 (hereinafter referred to “PFUTP Regulations”).
