Freezing the Demat Accounts of the petitioners - The Calcutta High Court adjudicated on the legality of freezing Demat Accounts of petitioners, directors of a listed company, by the Calcutta Stock Exchange (CSE). The petitioners argued that the freezing of their accounts violated SEBI Regulations due to lack of individual notices. The CSE justified its actions citing persistent non-compliance by the company. The court found procedural lapses by the CSE in issuing individual notices, as required under SEBI Circular dated January 22, 2020, but recognized the company's non-compliance. The court set aside the freezing notice, directing the CSE to issue fresh compliance notices to the petitioners, and allowed for future freezing actions if non-compliance persists.
