Adjudication Order against M/SRH Synthetics Ltd. March 14, 2018 Page 2 of 6 SCORES for redressing the investors grievances and subsequent redressal thereof, within specified time. Thus, it was alleged that Noticee had failed to redress pending investor grievances which renders the Noticee liable for imposition of penalty under Section 15C and 15HB of the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992 (hereinafter referred to as 'SEBI Act, 1992').
Adjudication Order against M/SRH Synthetics Ltd. March 14, 2018 Page 3 of 6 material / documents available on record. In the instant matter, the following issues arise for consideration and determination:-
Adjudication Order against M/SRH Synthetics Ltd. March 14, 2018 Page 4 of 6 is extremely important for the Regulator to regulate the capital market. If the grievances are not redressed within a time bound framework, it leads to frustration among the investors’ who may not be motivated to further invest in the capital market. Hence the importance of complaints redressal system initiated by SEBI in June, 2011 cannot be undermined and its sanctity has to be maintained by all the listed companies…….”. Therefore, I hold that the Noticee has failed in its duty by not resolving the investor grievances pending against it as alleged in the SCN.
