Relaxation in SEBI (Stock Brokers and Sub-brokers) Regulations, 1992
In a path-breaking move towards relaxing the procedural statutory requirements and to simplify restructuring of stock brokers, the Capital Market regulator SEBI has vide its circular no. CIR/MIRSD/2/2011 dated 03.06.2011 relaxed the provisions of SEBI (Stock Brokers and Sub-brokers) Regulations, 1992 as under:
· The requirement of prior approval of SEBI in case of change in status and constitution has been done away with.
· Now the stock brokers would only be required to obtain prior approval of Stock Exchanges and SEBI prior approval will only be required in case of Change in Control.
