The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has disposed of the proceedings initiated by a show cause notice against Dish TV independent directors Bhagwan Das Narang, Rashmi Aggarwal and Shankar Aggarwal without any further directions.
In March, the regulator had asked Dish TV India to disclose the results of its shareholder’s meeting held in December 2021 within 24 hours. The company did not disclose the results of its annual general meeting citing a pending case in the Bombay High Court.On March 7, Sebi’s whole-time member S K Mohanty passed an ex-parte interim order against Dish TV, its key management employees and the three IDs. Show cause notices were issued to the IDs seeking an explanation for the delay in disclosing the results despite repeated reminders.
Sebi’s order on Thursday observed that the regulator’s first advisory was not disclosed by Dish TV to the exchanges. As a result, the advisory was not in the public domain. “The material available on record does not suggest that the noticees were otherwise aware of the first advisory issued by Sebi,” the order said.
The final advisory was disclosed by Dish TV to the exchanges subsequently. On February 14, before the commencement of the board meeting, the company informed the IDs that it had already replied to Sebi and was awaiting a final response.
“The SCN and facts and circumstances of the case do not show whether the replies of the company dated January 18, 2022 and February 10, 2022, to Sebi and disclosure to the stock exchanges on February 10, 2022, was done after deliberation with independent directors. The facts do not indicate any complicity of the independent directors for the disclosures under Regulation 44(3) of the LODR Regulations and the Advisories issued by Sebi. Thus, no omission to exercise due diligence can be attributed to the independent directors in the facts and circumstances of the case,” the Sebi order observed on Thursday.
The March interim order had directed that the demat accounts of the independent directors be frozen until the voting results of the AGM held on December 30, 2021, were disclosed on the stock exchanges.
Dish TV had disclosed the results of the AGM to the Exchanges on March 8 and the freezing of the demat accounts was to be lifted as per the said order.
