The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is the regulatory authority for the securities market, ensuring fair practices, investor protection, and corporate governance. Companies listed on stock exchanges, intermediaries such as brokers, mutual funds, portfolio managers, and other market participants must comply with SEBI regulations.

SEBI compliance includes timely disclosures, submission of financial results, corporate governance reports, insider trading regulations, and compliance with listing obligations. Listed companies must adhere to SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015, which mandate periodic filings such as shareholding patterns, quarterly financials, and corporate governance compliance certificates. Additionally, SEBI enforces rules related to insider trading (PIT Regulations), takeovers (SAST Regulations), and issue of securities (ICDR Regulations).

Non-compliance with SEBI guidelines can lead to penalties, suspension of trading, or prosecution. Regular SEBI compliance not only avoids legal risks but also builds investor confidence, enhances market credibility, and promotes ethical corporate governance.

Companies are advised to appoint a Compliance Officer and maintain proper systems for monitoring, reporting, and filing to ensure adherence to SEBI regulations at all times.
