Shares of Manappuram Finance are in focus heading into trade on Monday after the company confirmed its Managing Director, V P Nandakumar, received a warning from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).
Nandakumar received the warning from SEBI on account of a delay in disclosure of share encumbrances, the company confirmed in an exchange filing.
The letter pertained to transactions carried out between Sept. 21 and Sept. 24 2018, which were reported on Oct. 11, 2018, with a delay of seven days.
SEBI said the delayed disclosure is a violation of Regulation 31(1) read with Regulation 31(3) of the Sebi (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 2011.
However, Manappuram confirmed that VP Nandakumar has not been penalised by the board or SEBI. They have also said the warning letter bears no financial impact, as it pertains to Nandakumar only on a personal capacity.
