    Specifics of Piramal's insider trading irregularities

    Specifics of Piramal's insider trading irregularities
  • When Piramal sold its domestic healthcare division to Abbott in 2010, Anand Piramal, Ajay Piramal's son, was aware of the deal.

    Anand was found to be neither a director nor an employee of the company.

    SEBI's rules also state that the company's trading window must be closed during the sale, which was violated, leading to an employee trading in its stock.

  • Quote

    Breaching trading norms

  • "These trades could go through because the trading window was never closed. It is to regulate such transactions going through during the UPSI (unpublished price-sensitive information) period that the law prescribes closure of trading window and preclearance of trades," SEBI said.

    Other securities scams in India

    Other securities scams in India
  • One of the biggest securities market heist was the Ketan Parekh securities scam in 2001.

    Ketan Parekh was involved in the stock manipulation and insider trading during the late 1990s, and is banned from trading in stocks till 2017.

    Satyam Computers' B. Ramalinga Raju's massive accounting scandal was another that saw the company's chief behind bars for inflating their bank balances.
