Sebi simplifies transmission of securities, introduces fast-track route for low-value claims

Sebi simplifies transmission of securities, introduces fast-track route for low-value claims - Regulators - 2 min read Sebi simplifies transmission of securities, introduces fast-track route for low-value claims The framework introduces Quick Transmission Processing (QTP) and revises the monetary thresholds under the simplified documentation route. New Delhi, Markets regulator Sebi on Thursday revised the security transmission framework by introducing a new fast-track mechanism for low-value claims and standardising documentation requirements to make the process efficient and investor-friendly. The framework introduces Quick Transmission Processing (QTP) and revises the monetary thresholds under the simplified documentation route. Under the new norms, the markets watchdog said QTP will apply to claims involving securities worth up to Rs 10,000 held in physical mode and Rs 30,000 for demat holdings. It also revised the threshold for transmission through simplified documentation to Rs 10 lakh for physical securities and Rs 30 lakh for demat holdings. It has replaced separate affidavits and no-objection certificates (NOCs) with a combined affidavit-cum-NOC and allowed QR code-enabled death certificates as valid documents for verification. For death certificates issued in foreign jurisdictions, the regulator has permitted additional modes of verification, including certification by overseas branches of Indian banks and foreign banks having correspondent banking relationships with Indian banks. The circular also mandates listed companies, registrars and transfer agents (RTAs), depositories, depository participants and asset management companies to use standardised forms for transmission requests.

NEET row: Delhi HC notifies special fast-track court, judge following PM's announcement NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court on Thursday designated a special fast-track court to exclusively try offences related to paper leaks and other unfair means in public examinations. In a notification, the high court said the court of judicial officer Anu Grover Baliga at the Rouse Avenue Court Complex will function as a Specially Designated Fast Track Court to hear cases under the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024, along with connected offences, with immediate effect. High court order Baliga, who was serving as the judge in charge of the Mediation Centre at Tis Hazari Courts, has been transferred to the Rouse Avenue Courts as special judge for the purpose. The notification came hours after Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the Centre had decided to establish fast-track courts to ensure "swift and stringent punishment" for those involved in examination paper leaks. In a post on X, the Prime Minister said the welfare and future of the country's youth remained the government's top priority and that those attempting to jeopardise students' future "will not be spared". He also said the government had directed the concerned authorities to take all necessary steps to safeguard students' interests. The announcement comes amid continuing protests over the alleged NEET paper leak, with demonstrators demanding accountability for examination irregularities and reforms in the education system.

5. IndiGo offers crisis management plan to settle CCI probe into flight disruption case

IndiGo offers crisis management plan to settle CCI probe into flight disruption case

IndiGo offers crisis management plan to settle CCI probe into flight disruption case India's largest airline IndiGo has proposed a series of commitments, including setting up a crisis management group, creating a dedicated passenger grievance mechanism and temporarily handing over airport slots during major disruptions, in a bid to address anti-competitive concerns raised by the Competition Commission of India (CCI). The commitments come as the airline faces a CCI investigation over alleged unfair business practices following the large-scale flight disruptions in December 2025 that affected more than three lakh passengers. Under the Competition Commission of India's commitment regulations, the watchdog has invited public comments on IndiGo's proposals. If the commitments are accepted after the consultation process, the ongoing anti-trust investigation can be closed without a final finding of wrongdoing. The CCI has temporarily paused its investigation until the public consultation and assessment process is completed, according to news agency PTI. What IndiGo has proposed As part of its commitments, IndiGo has proposed constituting a Crisis Management Group (CMG) comprising senior executives to oversee responses during large-scale operational disruptions. The airline has also offered to establish a 24x7 Customer Experience (CX) War Room to assist passengers affected by flight cancellations and delays. Other proposals include: - Strengthening passenger handling measures by onboarding additional vendors at airports to ensure the availability of meal boxes, drinking water and surface transport during disruptions. - Booking affected passengers on alternative flights and processing automatic refunds within a defined timeline. - Conducting structured reviews of disruption management mechanisms.
