Page 2 of 7 Exchanges on which its shares are listed within the stipulated time period. 3. Investigation was conducted by SEBI in the scrip of MSFL & it was alleged that the Noticee failed to disclose to the stock exchanges the change in shareholding as the Noticee in its reply dated January 21, 2008 admitted that the Platinum Finvest Pvt. Ltd. & Pragari Finvest Pvt. Ltd. sold the shares during the period February 2, 2005 to February 14, 2005. It was alleged that since the Noticee received the money from the promoter group companies i.e. Pragari Finvest (I) Pvt. Ltd. & Plantinum Finvest Pvt. Ltd. after the promoter group companies sold the shares in the market, the Noticee was very much aware of the dealings of its promoter group companies & therefore the Noticee on its own would have disclosed the same to the stock exchanges under Regulation 13(6) of SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulation, 1992 (hereinafter referred to as “PIT”). Hence by not disclosing the same to the stock exchanges Noticee was alleged to have violated Regulation 13(6) of PIT.
