The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) had initiated adjudication proceedings against the applicants for alleged violation for Code of Conduct of Sebi's (Prohibition of Insider Trading) regulation.

Thereafter, a common show cause notice was issued to Thammishetty and Dhole by Sebi on December 27, 2023 for allegedly flouting insider trading rules.
