SEBI:
Fees to be paid for change in firm's status
Mumbai: The Securities and Exchange Board of India
has clarified that fees must be paid by sub-brokers for
the conversion of a firm from a proprietorship into a
partnership and for mergers and acquisitions. These two
cases require fresh registration under the regulations,
and fees have to be paid along with the application for
registration.
Within six months from the date of receiving "prior
approval," the outgoing sub-broker should apply for
surrender of registration and the surviving or incoming
sub-broker should apply for fresh registration to SEBI.
Both - the outgoing and the incoming sub-brokers - must
also submit an undertaking that they would be jointly
and severally liable for all liabilities, obligations
and violations of provisions that have taken place before
the change in status of the firm. Until the incoming (or
surviving) sub-broker is granted registration by SEBI,
the outgoing sub-broker can continue to trade, says the
SEBI clarification.
