  • SEBI emphasizes that transparency is defined by the quality, timeliness, and usefulness of information rather than the sheer volume of data disclosed.
  • The regulator is working to clarify the framework governing related-party transactions to ensure requirements are clear and workable while maintaining investor safeguards.
  • SEBI aims to ensure regulatory compliance remains proportionate and avoids unnecessary duplication.
  • A new framework is being proposed to prevent the duplication of fines levied by multiple stock exchanges on entities listed on more than one exchange for the same violation.
