SEBI Introduces Settlement Regulations 2026 With Fast-Track Mechanism

SEBI introduced the Settlement Regulations 2026 to simplify the calculation of settlement amounts and make regulatory proceedings more transparent.

The new framework separates wrongful gains, avoided losses, and investor losses from the base settlement amount calculation, requiring them to be disgorged separately.

A fast-track settlement route was introduced for cases involving settlement amounts of up to ₹10 lakh, enabling direct resolution through a panel of whole-time members.
