Page 2 of 6 2011, SEBI issued a Show Cause Notice (SCN) dated January 03, 2013 to SPAL and its directors/ persons in charge of business of its scheme(s){hereinafter referred to as 'the noticees'} calling upon them to show cause as to why appropriate actions, as contemplated in the SCN, in terms of SEBI Act and CIS Regulations should not be taken against the noticees for failure to comply with the said order.

Page 3 of 6 repayment to the investors. The permission was granted. However, the noticees failed to file the written submissions alongwith proof/ evidence as undertaken by them and vide their letter dated November 19, 2013 sought extension of time to 14 days for filing the written submissions. Further time was granted and informed to the noticees vide letter dated November 29, 2013.
Page 4 of 6 8. In my view, present proceedings commenced vide the SCN dated January 03, 2013 are limited for determination of the issue as to whether the noticees have complied with directions issued vide order dated May 3, 2011 or not. The order dated May 3, 2011 is in operation and force as it has yet not been set aside, quashed or modified by any court/ Tribunal to date. The documents relied upon in support of the charge in the SCN dated January 03, 2013 are the order dated May 03, 2011 and demand/reminder letters subsequent thereto and those documents have been served upon and received by the noticees. I, therefore, do not find any infirmity in the present proceedings on this count. I further find that the noticees have made extraneous claims in this regard.
