Markets regulator SEBI has disposed of a case of alleged insider trading against Dish TV India’s corporate promoter Direct Media Distribution Ventures Pvt Ltd.
It was alleged that it had violated provisions of prohibition of insider trading norms, as per an order passed on Tuesday. It was alleged that the promoter sold 21.4 lakh shares of Dish TV through market transactions while in possession of UPSI. However, SEBI noted that "the trading pattern of the Noticee, … does not lead to the conclusion that Noticee’s trades in the scrip of DTIL on January 29, 2019 were induced by the UPSI.”
The Bombay high court on Thursday refused to grant relief to a promoter entity of Dish TV India Ltd, which questioned the legal validity of Yes Bank’s shares in the satellite-TV provider and wanted the court to debar the company’s top shareholder from voting at its 30 December annual meeting.
Separately, a new case was filed against Yes Bank by a group of Dish TV shareholders before a company court in Mumbai, alleging that the bank was committing unlawful acts.
