Regulatory brief, 3 Sep 2026

Composed

Responsible editor: Subhash Rai

Regulatory policy shifts

New RBI draft rules, SEBI certification changes and RBI sanctions update reshape compliance landscape.

The RBI has issued a draft framework for future foreign investment rules, signalling a possible liberalisation that could affect inbound capital flows. SEBI simplified certification for SIF distributors by introducing a single NISM qualification, easing entry for intermediaries. A RBI notification implements Section 51A of the UAPA, adding five entries to the Taliban sanctions list, raising AML compliance stakes for banks and NBFCs. Investors should monitor the finalisation of these rules and related compliance costs.

Enforcement actions and court orders

SEBI and the Supreme Court ramp up scrutiny on market participants.

SEBI issued an adjudication order against A2Z Infra Engineering Ltd and a separate order on Alankit Assignments Ltd, while also reaching a settlement with Modulus Alternatives Investment Managers over pro‑rata interest violations, underscoring tighter enforcement of corporate governance. The Supreme Court docket includes a Capital Via Global Research Ltd case that involves a SEBI show‑cause notice, a development that could set enforcement precedent. Reporters should watch for any further penalties, compliance directives or legal outcomes that may ripple through listed companies.

Capital market flows and auctions

Large government securities auction, FPI inflows and shifting investor composition drive market dynamics.

The RBI announced an underwriting auction of ₹28,000 crore government securities for July 24, with detailed primary dealer commitments, and later released the auction results showing yields for GS 2031 and GS 2066. In July, foreign portfolio investors injected ₹20,200 crore into Indian equities, ending a four‑month selling streak, while SEBI data revealed domestic investors now hold a record 17 % of equities and foreign share fell to a 15‑year low. Concurrently, a draft SME IPO document and the listing of Indo‑MIM Ltd add new issuance opportunities. Watch pricing, subscription levels and the evolving domestic‑foreign ownership balance.
