SEBI: meaning, example and why it matters

Securities and Exchange Board of India, the regulator of India's securities markets.

Worked example

Before paying an adviser ₹10,000 a year, you can confirm on SEBI's website that the person is registered. Investment advisers have registration numbers beginning with INA and research analysts with INH.

Illustrative numbers for explanation only. They are not market data, a forecast or a suggestion.

Why it matters

SEBI writes the rules for exchanges, brokers, mutual funds and IPO disclosures, and it keeps the register of who may offer advice.
