Page 3 of 6 for any personal hearing before me. In view of this, I find that the principles of natural justice have been duly complied with, in the present matter as the reply of the noticee has been considered although the noticee has not desired for a personal hearing. Thus, I find it appropriate to proceed further in the matter. I have considered the report of the Designated Authority, the SCN issued to the noticee and the material available on record. Having considered the above, the issue that arises for my consideration is: Whether the noticee has violated the provisions of Clauses A(1) and A(2) of the Code of Conduct for Stock Brokers as specified in schedule II under Regulation 7 of the Brokers Regulations read with the SEBI Circular bearing no. MRD/Policy/AT/Cir-19/2004 dated April 21, 2004?
