The market regulator said that it should take at least 15 months to complete the investigation of those transactions like the allegations made by Hindenburg Research. Although SEBI also said that they are making every possible effort to complete this investigation within 6 months.
SEBI has said in the petition, ‘In such an investigation, more layers are revealed from the information received at every step. The process of processing such complex transactions takes time to gather and analyze information. The nature of the transactions alleged are complex and have a number of sub-transactions attached to them. That’s why it takes time to collect and verify information from many sources in this investigation.
In this investigation, we will also need bank statements from many domestic and international banks. Now since more than 10 years old bank statements may also be needed, it is difficult to collect all this and it is also taking time.
