This adjudication order concerns Saral Mining Ltd. (formerly XO Infotech Ltd.) and its failure to make timely disclosures regarding significant changes in its shareholding in Sun and Shine Worldwide Limited. SEBI found that Saral Mining Ltd. acquired shares on two occasions, resulting in a change of over 2% in its holdings each time. However, the company failed to disclose these acquisitions to the stock exchange and the company within the stipulated two working days, making disclosures only on April 10, 2015, which was significantly delayed. Consequently, SEBI has imposed a monetary penalty on Saral Mining Ltd. for violating SEBI (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeover Regulations) and SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations.
