SEBI
The Securities and Exchange Board of India is the primary regulator of securities markets in India.
SEBI was established under the SEBI Act, 1992 to protect investors and develop the securities market.
It frames rules for exchanges, brokers, mutual funds, listed companies, and market intermediaries.
Circulars and regulations from SEBI shape surveillance, disclosure, and trading norms on NSE and BSE.
Market participants monitor SEBI updates because they can change listing, F&O, and settlement practices.
