Securities and Exchange Board of India(SEBI) is the regulatory body for the securities and stock market in India. Established in 1988 and given statutory powers in 1992, SEBI’s main job is to protect the interests of investors and ensure that the Indian stock market functions in a fair, transparent, and efficient manner.
Key Roles of SEBI:
1. Regulates Stock Exchanges – Like NSE and BSE.
2. Protects Investors – Ensures companies and brokers don’t mislead or cheat investors.
3. Monitors Mutual Funds & IPOs – Sets guidelines for how mutual funds and companies raise money from the public.
4. Prevents Insider Trading – Stops people with secret company info from unfairly profiting in the market.
5. Promotes Fair Practices – Ensures that trading is done ethically and transparently.
In short, SEBI acts like a watchdog for the Indian stock market, making sure the market runs smoothly and investors are treated fairly.
