Markets regulator Sebi on Thursday cancelled the registration of Kolar Sharex Pvt Ltd as stock broker for violating market norms. In a separate order, Sebi said it has also cancelled the registration certificate of Rajkumar C. Basantani as stock broker, who, apart from being a director of Kolar Sharex, was also a trading member of the National Stock Exchange (NSE).
Sebi noted that Kolar Sharex was having membership of BSE and Inter Connected Stock Exchange (ICSE) before it was expelled from the exchanges in October 2014 pursuant to a decision of the disciplinary action committee (DAC) of the BSE, which had noted various irregularities by Kolar Sharex.
