Adjudication Order in respect of Minerva Textiles Private Limited In the matter of dealings of Sanjay Dangi and other entities in various scrips Page 3 of 22 December 28, 2012 Mr. Sanjay Dangi, SEBI initiated a preliminary inquiry in the matter to find as to whether there was any concentration of shareholding of the company among the ten entities and whether there was any attempt to manipulate the share prices of the company before the FCCB issue of MIL. Based on the preliminary findings of the aforesaid investigation, it appeared to SEBI that a group of entities connected to each other (Dangi Group) had influenced the price rise in the scrip during the ‘pricing period’ of FCCBs and thereafter, exited the scrip at a profit, as per the alleged agreement made with the promoters of MIL.
