SEBI launches revamped settlement regulations with online filing and calculator
SEBI is rolling out its revamped settlement regulations on November 7, 2026.
The big change? Companies and individuals can now file certain cases online, using an online application facility and an online settlement amount calculator to figure out settlement amounts.
Show-cause recipients have 90-day window
If you get a show-cause notice, you've got 90 days to apply for settlement, unless your case is pending before the Securities Appellate Tribunal or the Supreme Court.
There's also an option to settle even before getting that notice, but with some restrictions.
The application fee can be made through the designated payment gateway, and SEBI will determine the settlement amount under the prescribed settlement framework.
Miss your payment? SEBI may reject the application, so it pays to stay on top of things!
