Securities And Exchange Board Of India8 May 2015

Ratio decidendi

The rule this decision rests on

Where a company's shares are allotted to persons and entities whose shareholding, addresses, directors, KYC details, bank transfers or off-market dealings show a direct or indirect connection with the company, its promoters and each other, that connection may be prima facie established from those factors, and the connected group may be treated as acting together. A sustained price rise that is not backed by the company's fundamentals, which is brought about by trades in negligible volume by connected entities and is followed by connected buyers absorbing the sales of allottees and promoter-related entities, with no change in beneficial ownership, is prima facie a manipulative and fraudulent scheme in the securities market. Such conduct falls within section 12A(a) to (c) of the SEBI Act, 1992 and regulations

As delivered

WTM/RKA/ ISD/36/2015 SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE BOARD OF INDIA AD- INTERIM EX-PARTE ORDER UNDER SECTIONS 11(1), 11(4) AND 11B OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE BOARD OF INDIA ACT, 1992 IN THE MATTER OF PINE ANIMATION LIMITED. 1. Pursuant to detection of a huge rise in the traded volumes and price of the shares of Pine Animation Limited {formerly known as Four K Animation Limited and hereinafter referred to as "Pine"} on Bombay Stock Exchange Limited ("BSE") during the period from May 22, 2013 to January 30, 2015 (hereinafter referred to as "Examination Period"), Securities and Exchange Board of India ("SEBI") conducted a preliminary inquiry in the dealings in the scrip of Pine. 2. On May 20, 2013, the equity shares of Pine were split in the ratio 1:10 and thereafter between May 22, 2013 to June 19, 2013 ("Patch 1"), the price of the scrip increased from ₹ 472 (unadjusted and ₹ 47.2 adjusted to share split) on May 22, 2013 to ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split) on June 19, 2013 i.e. an increase by approximately 113%. Between June 20, 2013 and December 16, 2013, ("Patch 2") the scrip was traded only on 13 trading days and the price moved from ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split) to ₹ 910 (unadjusted and ₹ 91 adjusted to share split). Thereafter, there was a huge increase in the traded volume during the period December 17, 2013 to January 30, 2015 ("Patch 3"). The price of the scrip started falling from July 10, 2014 with volumes still being maintained and subsequently, there was a drastic fall in price from ₹ 707.5 (unadjusted and ₹ 70.75 adjusted to share split) on January 02, 2015 to ₹ 388.5 (unadjusted and ₹ 38.85 adjusted to share split) on January 30, 2015, in a span of 20 trading days. An illustration of the price/volume movement in the scrip of Pine during the Examination Period is given below:

Order in the matter of Pine Animation Limited

3. As per the quarterly shareholding pattern submitted to BSE, as on September 30, 2012, Pine had a share capital of ₹ 3,00,00,000 comprising 30,00,000 equity shares of ₹10 each, with the promoters holding 9,27,400 shares i.e. 30.91% of the total share holding. It was observed in the preliminary inquiry that: a) On December 13, 2012, Pine made a preferential allotment of 1,50,00,000 equity shares at the price of ₹ 10 per share (hereinafter referred to as the "1st preferential allotment") to 49 entities. b) Thereafter, the promoters namely, First Entertainment Private Limited and Unique image Production Pvt. Ltd. who were holding shares in the physical form, transferred their entire holdings i.e. 9, 27,400 shares to 6 entities, who in turn transferred the shares to 62 entities (the total of 68 entities, hereinafter referred to as "Promoter related entities ") during the period from December 28, 2012 to February 05, 2013. The list of all the Promoter related entities is annexed as Part I of Annexure A. 49 of the Promoter related entities subsequently sold 54.76% of the shares received from the promoters. c) Subsequently, on March 15, 2013, Pine made another preferential allotment of 97,00,000 equity shares at the price of ₹ 10 per share (hereinafter referred to as the "2nd preferential allotment") to 48 entities who included 5 entities who were allotted shares in the 1st preferential allotment. d) In total, Pine allotted 2,47,00,000 equity shares to 92 entities (List is annexed as Part II of Annexure A).

The equity shares allotted on preferential basis to aforesaid allottees were locked-in for a period of one year i.e. up to December 12, 2013 and March 14, 2014, respectively in terms of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2009. Thus, the shares held by 49 entities who were allotted shares in the 1st preferential allotment and shares held by 48 entities (including 5 entities who were allotted shares in the 1st preferential allotment) who were allotted shares in the 2nd preferential allotment were not tradable till December 12, 2013 and March 14, 2014 respectively. 4. On May 20, 2013, the equity shares of Pine were split in the ratio of 1:10. Consequently, the paid up share capital of Pine increased to ₹27,70,00,000 comprising 27,70,00,000 shares of ₹ 1 each, as on May 20, 2013. 5. From the Annual Reports of Pine for Financial Year ("FY") 2011-12 and FY 2012-2013, it was observed that it is in the business of animation and it had incurred a loss of ₹ 7,08,037 during 2011-12 and earned a profit of ₹ 15,60,007 during FY 2012-13, respectively.

From the Annual Report for the FY 2012-2013 it was observed that for the FY ended 2012 the earning per shares ("EPS") of Pine was negative (i.e. ₹ - 0.24) and for the FY ended March 31, 2013, EPS was ₹ 0.15. During the Examination Period there was no material corporate announcement made by Pine which could support such price rise in its scrip. Thus, the sharp rise in the price of the scrip of Pine during the Examination Period was not supported by its fundamentals or any other genuine factor. The scrip was listed on BSE on March 25, 1994 and was subsequently suspended from trading w.e.f November 09, 1998. The suspension on trading in the securities of the scrip was revoked w.e.f June 22, 2012, however, trading in the scrip started only on March 28, 2013. Also, the shareholding of the promoters in the company became nil on account of transfer of shares by the promoters to the Promoter related entities. Strangely, in spite of such fundamentals and tarnished track record of long period of suspension of trading, exit by the promoters and no available market price on account of no trading in the scrip, Pine was able to garner funds aggregating to ₹24,70,00,000 from aforesaid 92 entities at a premium of ₹ 10 per share within a short span of few months from the revocation of suspension.

Investment in a company having such poor and meagre fundamentals cannot prima facie be termed as rational investment behaviour. Such investments, as in this case, normally could be made if the allottees had a nexus with Pine and its directors/promoters and the issue of these shares was under a prior arrangement between them. 6. It was observed that within a short period after the 2nd preferential allotment, a significant increase in the price of the scrip took place and the price was maintained during the period of lock in on the shares allotted to the preferential allotees. Considering the fact that prior to the preferential allotments, there was no trading in the scrip of Pine, the increase in the traded volume in the period after the release of the lock-in period was found to be substantial. In light of the above, in order to observe the price volume behaviour of the scrip, the trading in the scrip was analysed in three Patches with a focus on the following:-  The trading frequency;  The volume generated;  Contribution to price rise;  Buying behaviour as observed from Last Traded Price ("LTP") data 7. On analysis of trading activity in the scrip of Pine, it was observed that, during the Examination Period, two sets /groups of entities were mainly involved.

While one group of entities was primarily involved in pushing the price up during Patch-1 (when the shares allotted in preferential allotments were under lock-in) by contributing to positive LTP through first trades with negligible order quantity, the other group of entities was acting as buyers in Patch-2 in order to provide exit to Preferential Allottees and in the process creating artificial volume. The role of these two groups is discussed in subsequent paragraphs.

8. During Patch 1 (May 22, 2013 to June 19, 2013), the price of the scrip opened at ₹ 472 on May 22, 2013 (unadjusted and ₹ 47.2 adjusted to share split). Thereafter, in 19 trading days, between May 22, 2013 to June 19, 2013, the price of the scrip increased to ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split). The average volume during the period was 62 shares, with 405 shares traded on May 28, 2013 being the highest. The price increased from ₹ 472 (unadjusted and ₹ 47.2 adjusted to share split) to ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split), through first trades by certain entities. It was noticed that these entities by putting 1 or 2 trade(s) per day with negligible/ very less quantity of buy orders contributed significantly to the price rise. 9. It was observed that in Patch 1, out of a total of 31 instances of trades establishing new high price in the scrip, six entities namely, Nellakkara Raghunath, Prem Lata Nahar, Dhirendra Kumar Gupta and Sons, J M S Financial Services Ltd., Sanjay Kumar Shah and Rajesh Kumar Shukla established new high price on 25 instances. The contribution of these six entities in establishing new high price was ₹45.75/- out of total price rise of ₹54.9/-, which constitutes 83.3% of the total new high price. The details of contribution to price rise by these six entities during Patch 1 are as under: Table 1 - Contribution to price rise in Patch 1 by six entities. PAN Name Name Positive LTP % to Total reflected in the Contribution Positive LTP Interim Order as a buyer Contribution - 17.15 31.2 AESPN9474K Nellakkara Raghunath Radford Global 9.85 17.9 Limited, First Financial AFAPN8764M Prem Lata Nahar Services Ltd - 8.2 14.9 Dhirendra Kumar Gupta AAFHD9092L And Sons Huf J M S Financial Services - AAACJ8428J Ltd. 4.4 8 - AJSPS5543F Sanjay Kumar Shah 3.15 5.7 - BGGPS9416R Rajesh Kumar Shukla 3 5.5 45.75 83.3 TOTAL 10. It is observed that the entity Prem Lata Nahar, named in the above Table was instrumental in contributing to the price rise of the scrips of Radford Global Limited and First Financial Services Limited and is already restrained from dealing in securities market in whatsoever manner vide interim orders dated December 19, 2014 in the scrips of Radford Global Limited and First Financial Services Limited for contributing to price rise in the respective scrips.

11. During Patch 2 (June 20, 2013 to December 16, 2013), the price of the scrip opened at ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split) on June 20, 2013 and closed at ₹ 910 (unadjusted and ₹ 91 adjusted to share split) on December 16, 2013. The volume continued to be insignificant, the highest being 200 shares on June 24, 2013 and the gross traded volume being 1254 shares. The scrip was traded only on 13 trading days during Patch 2. 12. During Patch 3 (December 17, 2013 to January 30, 2015), the price of the scrip opened at ₹ 921 (unadjusted and ₹ 92.1 adjusted to share split) on December 26, 2013 and closed at ₹ 385 (unadjusted and ₹ 38.5 adjusted to share split) on January 30, 2015. The scrip touched a high of ₹ 976.5 (unadjusted and ₹ 97.65 adjusted to share split) on January 01, 2014. During this period, the scrip was traded with an average volume of 2,74,922 shares per day and total volume of 7,36,79,112 shares in 268 trading days. As compared to Patch 1, the average volume in Patch 3 increased by around 4433 times. 13. On analysis of trading activity during Patch 3, certain entities related/connected to Pine were found to be the net buyers to the Preferential Allottees/Promoter related entities and thereby created artificial demand for the supply of shares from Preferential Allottees/Promoter related entities.

During Patch 3, significant increase in the trading volume was observed. It was also observed that a group of connected/related entities were acting as counterparties to the trades done by the Preferential allottees/Promoter related entities. Also on further examination, direct/indirect relationship was established among these entities through Know Your Client ("KYC") details, bank statements, off-market transactions amongst them and the information available on the Ministry of Corporate Affairs ("MCA") website. List of these entities is annexed as Part III of Annexure – A and hereinafter they shall be referred to as the "Exit Providers". Since the Exit Providers, Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities have been prima facie found to be connected/ related to Pine / its promoters/ directors, they shall hereinafter collectively be referred to as "Pine Group". 14. Considering the large number of these related/connected entities, it was deemed necessary to shortlist those who have bought/sold in the scrip on the basis of the gravity of their conduct and the nature of the prima facie evidence available in the matter.

A set of 158 entities (hereinafter referred to as the "Shortlisted Group") were shortlisted on the basis of following parameters: A. All the Exit Providers. B. All the Preferential Allottees who have sold Pine's shares. C. All the Promoter related entities who received shares directly from the promoters and subsequently transferred the same to other Promoter related entities. D. All the Promoter related entities who have sold shares more than ₹ 1,00,00,000 as sale value, in the market, individually or collectively with other Promoter related entities connected/related to them. 15. The particulars of the above mentioned Shortlisted group are given in the following table:

During the same period, the Preferential Allottees were found to be selling and in the process making a huge profit/gain. It is observed that 52 allottees made a collective profit of ₹ 453.02 crore on a collective investment of ₹5.23 crore, a whopping return of approximately 8661% on their investment in a period of 25 months (including the lock in period of the shares allotted in the preferential allotment). This profit was obtained in a stock where the fundamentals/ financials of the company do not justify the price. It is evident from the above analysis of Patch 3 that the Exit Providers provided a hugely profitable exit to the allottees. The profit/gain earned by the allottees during Patch 3 is given below:-

19. The transactions wherein the Exit Providers bought most of the shares sold by the Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities cannot be just a coincidence particularly when sellers have nexus with Pine and its promoters/directors by virtue of being Preferential allotees/ Promoter related entities and other factors mentioned in Annexure –A. It is interesting to note that in Patch 1, 92.52% of the share capital of Pine was with the Preferential Allottees and the Promoter related entities. From the analysis presented for Patch 1 and 2, it was established that the shares of Pine were not in demand by the general investors of the market and saw very low volume on most of the trading days and hence could not have commanded the price as observed in Patch 3. In any market, a sudden supply if not matched by similar demand leads to price fall. Considering the same, any rational investor would not have dumped a large number of shares without facing the risk of a significant price fall until and unless he was sure of the demand side absorbing the supply. In this peculiar case, the Exit Providers created the demand against the supply from the Preferential Allottees/ Promoter related entities. In the whole process, the principle of price discovery was kept aside and the market lost its purpose. It is evident from the above analysis that the Exit Providers provided a hugely profitable exit to the Preferential Allottees/ Promoter related entities. This could be only possible if Pine and its promoters/directors, Preferential Allottees, Promoter related entities and the Exit Providers were hand in glove with each other.

20. From the above examination and factors as described in Annexure A, I am of the prima facie view that Pine, Preferential Allottees, Promoter related entities and Exit Providers are connected to each other. In this regard, I note that the Hon’ble SAT has held in many cases such as Classic Credit Ltd. Vs. SEBI (SAT Appeal No. 68/2003, Order dated December 8, 2006), Classic Credit Ltd. Vs. SEBI (SAT Appeal No. 76/2003, Order dated January 09, 2007) and Veronica Financial Services Ltd Vs. SEBI (SAT Order dated August 24, 2012) that connection/relations can be established on the basis of factors including common addresses, common directors/shareholders, etc.

21. It is pertinent to mention that the key to the scheme of operations employed by Pine Group, prima facie, lies in the preferential allotment of shares made by Pine. Due to a lock-in of one year on shares, any gains made on the sale of such shares makes the allottees eligible for long term capital gains (“LTCG”). Further, the promoters of Pine namely, First Entertainment Private Limited and Unique image Production Pvt. Ltd, by offloading the shares to its connected entities in physical form and the entities selling the shares, after holding it for a period of one year, have also made the transferees eligible for LTCG. From the observations of the preliminary inquiry, it is inter alia noted that:

 As on December 2012, Pine had 373 shareholders, with the two promoters (i.e. First Entertainment Private Limited and Unique image Production Pvt. Ltd ) holding 9,27,400 shares i.e. 30.91% of shares.  Thereafter, the aforesaid two promoters transferred a total of 927400 shares to 68 entities directly/indirectly during the period December 28, 2012 to February 05, 2012.  In the meantime, Pine also allotted 1,50,00,000 shares to 49 related/ associated entities, at a price of ₹ 10 per share.

 Subsequently, Pine allotted 97,00,000 shares at a price of ₹ 10 per share to 48 entities including 5 entities who were allotted shares in the 1st Preferential Allotment.  Thereafter, suddenly trading started in the scrip of Pine from March 28, 2013 with very low volumes.  As on May 20, 2013, 92.52% of share capital of Pine was with the Promoter related entities and Preferential allotees.  Pine announced a stock-split in the ratio of 1:10 on May 20, 2013 and also in the meanwhile, the price of the scrip increased exponentially, from ₹ 472 (unadjusted and ₹ 47.2 adjusted to share split) on May 20, 2013 to ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split) on June 19, 2013. The said increase in the price was not backed by fundamentals of Pine and its financials.  Once the lock-in period ended i.e. from December 17, 2013, the preferential allotees started selling the shares to entities connected/ related, directly or indirectly to Pine, thereby making huge profits. The Promoter related entities, also, around the same time started selling their shares, after holding them for a period of one year.

22. From the facts stated above, it can safely be assumed that the entire modus operandi of allotting shares on a preferential basis, announcing a stock split and then bringing in connected entities to provide exit was a scheme devised to make ill-gotten gains. Further, the modus operandi of pumping the share price artificially and then dumping the price so that the same cycle could be repeated, demonstrates the mala fide of the Pine Group. Also the mechanism is presumably being used to deceive the authorities by laundering black money and making tax-free profits.

23. Further, from the copies of the special resolution, passed under section 81(1A) of the Companies Act, 1956 as available on BSE website it is noted that Pine had disclosed to its shareholders and public that the purpose of aforesaid fund raising through preferential allotment was to fulfil the additional funding requirements of the company for acquisition and development of moveable and immovable property.

24. During preliminary inquiry it was observed from the bank statement of Pine that money received through two preferential allotments of equity shares were immediately transferred to the following entities:-

25. From the bank statement analysis of Pine, it is observed that funds received as proceeds of preferential allotment were immediately transferred to various entities on the same day or in a matter of next three days and was never retained in the company for executing its plans as envisaged in the special resolution passed under section 81(1A) of the Companies Act, 1956. Incidentally, some of the entities who received funds from Pine such as Pyramid Trading & Finance (presently known as Mishka Trading & Finance Ltd.), Blue Circle Services Ltd., have already been restrained from dealing in securities market in whatsoever manner, vide interim orders dated April 17, 2015 and December 19, 2014, for their dealings in the scrips of Mishka Trading & Finance Ltd. and First Financial Services Ltd, for a similar modus operandi. Other entities such as Albright Consultants and Nirnidhi Consultants were found to be connected to Blue Circle Services Ltd. Further, the directors of Bihariji Constructions namely, Umang Dhanuka, Bina Devi Dhanuka, Mayank Dhanuka and Rajkumari Dhanuka are among the Promoter related entities.

26. Further, it is also observed that prior to receipt of the proceeds of the preferential allotments, the fund available in the bank account of the company would not have been sufficient enough for transfers to various entities, as mentioned at Table – 6 above.

27. On analysis of the Annual Reports of Pine for FY 2012-13 and FY 2013-14, it is observed that the Pine's revenue from operations increased from ₹ 8,94,000 for the year ending March 31, 2012 to ₹ 8,76,36,983 for the year ending March 31, 2013 i.e. an exponential growth in the revenue by 9703%. Similarly, the revenue from operations increased from ₹

8,76,36,983 for the year ending March 31, 2013 to ₹ 86,13,67,052 for the year ending March 31, 2014, which again was an exponential increase of 883%. On further examination of the "Management Discussion and Analysis" part of the annual reports, it is observed that the reports do not discuss the factors that contributed to such exponential increase in the revenue from operations. It is also pertinent to mention that the "Management Discussion and Analysis" indicates that during the relevant period, the animation industry faced various challenges due to global and economic slowdown and increasing rates of interest rates. When the animation industry was facing various challenges and the annual reports are silent about the reasons for the substantial increase in the revenue from operations, it gives rise to a doubt, whether the reported income figures are genuine. This issue requires further investigation from the forensic angle.

28. From the observations of the preliminary inquiry, it is inter alia noted that :- a) the fund brought in by way of preferential allotment was utilised for purposes other than those disclosed and extended by way of purported loans to companies through informal arrangements; b) even when substantial number of shares i.e. 24,70,00,000 shares (89.17% of the total shareholding of Pine) were locked-in and non transferable / tradable, price of the scrip increased from ₹ 472 (unadjusted and ₹ 47.2 adjusted to share split) to ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split) with small chunk of volume / purchases by certain entities; c) after the expiry of the lock-in period (i.e. in Patch 3), the average volume increased astronomically to the extent of 4433 times. Such increase in volume was mainly on account of matched trading amongst Preferential Allotees, Promoter related entities and Exit Providers. d) 52 out of the 92 Preferential Allottees sold total 5,23,08,076 shares allotted to them by Pine at the price increased on account of the aforesaid manipulative trading in Patch 1.

29. From the above facts and circumstances it can reasonably be inferred that the Preferential Allottees along with the Promoter related entities acting in concert with Exit Providers have misused the stock exchange system to generate fictitious LTCG so as to convert their unaccounted income into accounted one with no payment of taxes as LTCG is tax exempt. I prima facie find that the above modus operandi helped the concerned entities to pay a lower rate of tax on account of LTCG and helped them to show the source of this income to be from legitimate source i.e. stock market.

30. In the facts and circumstances of this case, I am of the view that the preferential allotment was used as a tool for implementation of the dubious plan, device and artifice of Exit Providers, Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities. One could argue that in order to make LTCG, the Preferential Allottees in question could have bought in secondary market and waited for a year before selling the shares. In the instant case, probably the preferential allotment route was preferred over secondary market route because the share capital of Pine prior to preferential allotment was very small i.e. 30,00,000 shares to accommodate the required fictitious LTCG of ₹ 453 crore approximately. As such the capital expansion through preferential allotment and stock split provided much bigger source to the persons involved in terms of volume and price manipulation to facilitate the whole operation. Further, the entire scheme of operation also helped the promoters of Pine to exit from the company.

31. Since prior to the trading in its scrip during the Examination Period, Pine did not have any business or financial standing in the securities market, in my view, the only way it could have increased its share value is by way of market manipulation. In this case, it is noted that the traded volume and price of the scrip increased substantially only after the Exit Providers, preferential allotees and Promoter related entities started trading in the scrip. The average volume increased by 4433 times during the Examination Period i.e. from 62 shares per day to 2,74,922 shares per day. It is further noted that on the days when Pine Group was not trading, the traded volumes in the scrip were very low and the substantial increase in traded volumes as observed in this case was mainly due to their trading. I further note that Exit Providers, Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities traded amongst themselves as substantiated by their matching contribution to net buy and net sell in Patch 3. There was no change in the beneficial ownership of the substantial number of traded shares as the buyers and sellers both were part of the common group and were acting in concert to provide LTCG benefits to the Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities. In view of the above, I prima facie find that Exit Providers, Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities used securities market system to artificially increase volume and price of the scrip for creating bogus non taxable profits (i.e. LTCG).

32. In addition to the above, it is noted that after the preferential allotment and transfer of shares by the promoters to the Promoter related entities, about 92.52% of the share capital of Pine was with the Promoter related entities and Preferential Allottees. During the period from Mary 22, 2013 to June 19, 2013, the price of the scrip increased from ₹ 472 (unadjusted and ₹ 47.2 adjusted to share split) to ₹ 1006 (unadjusted and ₹ 100.6 adjusted to share split) in a matter of 19 trading days, with the trading volume as meager as 62 shares per day. The trading volume suddenly increased to 2,74,922 shares per day during the period from December 17, 2013 to January 30, 2015, when Exit Providers, Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities started trading in the scrip. The prima facie modus operandi appears to be same as that used in the matter of Radford Global Limited where the stock exchange mechanism was used for the purpose of availing LTCG tax benefit and Pine was found actively involved in the whole design to misuse stock exchange mechanism to generate bogus LTCG.

33. I am of the considered view that the scheme, plan, device and artifice employed in this case, apart from being a possible case of money laundering or tax evasion which could be seen by the concerned law enforcement agencies separately, is prima facie also a fraud in the securities market in as much as it involves manipulative transactions in securities and misuse of the securities market. The manipulation in the traded volume and price of the scrip by a group of connected entities has the potential to induce gullible and genuine investors to trade in the scrip and harm them. As such the acts and omissions of Exit Providers, Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities are ‘fraudulent’ as defined under regulation 2(1)(c) of the SEBI (Prohibition of Fraudulent and Unfair Trade Practices relating to Securities Market) Regulations, 2003 (‘PFUTP Regulations’) and are in contravention of the provisions of Regulations 3(a), (b), (c), (d), 4(1), 4(2)(a), (b), (e) and (g) thereof and section 12A(a), (b) and (c) of the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992. The said provisions are reproduced hereunder:-

SEBI ACT Prohibition of manipulative and deceptive devices, insider trading and substantial acquisition of securities or control.

"12A. No person shall directly or indirectly— (a) use or employ, in connection with the issue, purchase or sale of any securities listed or proposed to be listed on a recognized stock exchange, any manipulative or deceptive device or contrivance in contravention of the provisions of this Act or the rules or the regulations made thereunder; (b) employ any device, scheme or artifice to defraud in connection with issue or dealing in securities which are listed or proposed to be listed on a recognised stock exchange; (c) engage in any act, practice, course of business which operates or would operate as fraud or deceit upon any person, in connection with the issue, dealing in securities which are listed or proposed to be listed on a recognised stock exchange, in contravention of the provisions of this Act or the rules or the regulations made thereunder;"

PFUTP Regulations "3. Prohibition of certain dealings in securities No person shall directly or indirectly— (a) buy, sell or otherwise deal in securities in a fraudulent manner; (b) use or employ, in connection with issue, purchase or sale of any security listed or proposed to be listed in a recognized stock exchange, any manipulative or deceptive device or contrivance in contravention of the provisions of the Act or the rules or the regulations made there under; (c) employ any device, scheme or artifice to defraud in connection with dealing in or issue of securities which are listed or proposed to be listed on a recognized stock exchange;

(d) engage in any act, practice, course of business which operates or would operate as fraud or deceit upon any person in connection with any dealing in or issue of securities which are listed or proposed to be listed on a recognized stock exchange in contravention of the provisions of the Act or the rules and the regulations made there under.

4. Prohibition of manipulative, fraudulent and unfair trade practices (1) Without prejudice to the provisions of regulation 3, no person shall indulge in a fraudulent or an unfair trade practice in securities. (2) Dealing in securities shall be deemed to be a fraudulent or an unfair trade practice if it involves fraud and may include all or any of the following, namely:— (a) indulging in an act which creates false or misleading appearance of trading in the securities market; (b) dealing in a security not intended to effect transfer of beneficial ownership but intended to operate only as a device to inflate, depress or cause fluctuations in the price of such security for wrongful gain or avoidance of loss; …. (e) any act or omission amounting to manipulation of the price of a security; …. (g) entering into a transaction in securities without intention of performing it or without intention of change of ownership of such security;"

34. I note that the directors of Pine during the relevant time (i.e. Nagaraja Sharma Rajagopalan, Lalji Ramraj Yadav, Mandar Subhash Palav, Deepak Prakash Rane, Nirmal Pragjibhai Jodhani, Priyesh Prakash Pethe, Santosh Sharma, Krishnakumar Omprakash Murarka), being in control of the day to day affairs of Pine, had the knowledge of its acts and omissions. They were also under an obligation to ensure that the acts and transactions of Pine were not in violation of any of the applicable provisions of SEBI Regulations or other applicable laws. I, therefore, prima facie find that these directors as well as Pine were responsible for Pine's acts and omissions in this case.

35. I am of the opinion that a detailed investigation of the entire scheme employed in this case is necessary to find out the role of any other entity therein, connection amongst the concerned entities and the ultimate owners of funds used for manipulating the price of the scrip of Pine. Also, an investigation of the annual accounts of Pine from the forensic angle would be necessary. Therefore, while SEBI would investigate into the probable violations of the securities laws, the matter may also be referred to other law enforcement agencies such as Income Tax Department, Enforcement Directorate and Financial Intelligence Unit for necessary action at their end as may be deemed appropriate by them.

36. SEBI strives to safeguard the interests of a genuine investor in the Indian securities market. The acts of artificially increasing the price of scrip misleads investors and the fundamental tenets of market integrity get violated with impunity due for such acts. Under the facts and circumstances of this case, I prima facie find that the acts and omissions of Pine Group as described above is inimical to the interests of participants in the securities market. Therefore, allowing the entities that are prima facie found to be involved in such fraudulent, unfair and manipulative transactions to continue to operate in the market would shake the confidence of the investors in the securities market. 37. I have considered the observations in the preliminary inquiry and noted that the shortlisted entities as mentioned in Table 2 are connected directly/indirectly with Pine/ its promoters on account of factors described in Annexure A. The two promoters who were holding the shares in physical form had transferred their shareholding in off-market to the Promoter related entities. Further, Pine also allotted shares under preferential allotment.

Once the shares were allotted/ transferred to the Preferential Allottees/Promoter related entities, certain entities started moving the price of the scrip upwards by trading in very low volumes. After lock-in of 1 year on preferentially allotted shares was over, the Exit Providers gave exit opportunity to the Preferential Allottees as well as Promoter related entities. From the bank statement of Pine, I find that Pine has transferred funds to some of the Exit Providers, through layers. I also note that the shortlisted entities have contributed majorly to the market volume both at buy and the sell side. 38. Further, I note that vide Interim Orders dated December 19, 2014 in the matters of First Financial Services Limited and Radford Global Limited, Pine has been restrained from accessing securities market directly or indirectly in whatsoever manner for suspected price manipulation in the respective scrips. Further, I also note that some of the Preferential Allottees and the Exit Providers have been restrained from accessing securities market directly or indirectly in whatsoever manner vide the aforesaid interim orders dated December 19, 2015 and interim order dated April 17, 2015 in the matter of Mishka Finance and Trading Limited for suspected price manipulation in the respective scrips.

Based on the aforesaid findings and taking into consideration the similar modus operandi of market manipulation adopted in similar matters of Radford Global Ltd, First Financial Services Ltd. and Mishka Finance and Trading Ltd., as observed by SEBI in its respective Orders, it prima facie appears that certain market manipulations are taking place in the scrip of Pine. I note that currently a major portion of the shareholding (around 65.93%) lies with the Preferential Allottees and Promoter related entities. It is further noted that as on May 06, 2015, the allottees are still holding 18,03,34,724 shares of Pine that were allotted to them in the aforesaid preferential allotments. Further, the promoter related entities who bought shares from promoters are holding 23,00,645 shares of Pine as on May 06, 2015.The price of the scrip as on May 06,2015 was ₹24/- per share. Thus, the preferential allottees and promoter related entities who are still holding these shares, may potentially book a bogus tax exempt LTCG of approximately ₹420 crore. Unless prevented they may use the stock exchange mechanism in the same manner as discussed hereinabove for the purposes of their dubious plans as prima facie found in this case. In my view, the stock exchange system cannot be permitted to be used for any unlawful/forbidden activities.

40. Considering the above facts and the indulgence of a listed company in such a fraudulent scheme, plan, device and artifice as prima facie found in this case, I am convinced that this is a fit case where, pending investigation, effective and expeditious preventive and remedial action is required to be taken by way of ad interim ex -parte in order to protect the interests of investors and preserve the safety and integrity of the market. 41. It is also pertinent to mention that vide SEBI's Orders in the matter of Radford Global Ltd and First Financial Services Ltd., Pine itself has been restrained from buying, selling or dealing in the securities market, till further directions and the said restraint is in operation as on date. Considering the above, I am of the view that as an interim, preventive and remedial measure and to maintain orderly development in the securities market, in the interests of securities market and investors, it would also be necessary to take immediate steps regarding trading in the scrip of Pine on the stock exchange. Considering these facts and the indulgence of a listed company in such a fraudulent scheme, plan, device and artifice as prima facie found in this case, I am convinced that this is a fit case where, pending investigation, effective and expeditious preventive and remedial action is required to be taken by way of ad interim ex -parte in order to protect the interests of investors and preserve the safety and integrity of the securities market. 42. In view of the foregoing, in order to protect the interest of the investors and the integrity of the securities market, I, in exercise of the powers conferred upon me in terms of section 19 read with section 11(1), section 11 (4) and section 11B of SEBI Act, 1992, pending inquiry/investigation and passing of final order in the matter, hereby issue the following directions: a. restrain the following persons/entities from accessing the securities market and buying, selling or dealing in securities, either directly or indirectly, in any manner, till further directions:-
