Sumit Agrawal shares his views on “SEBI Under Pandey: A Shift Towards Clarity, Stability, and Deregulation”

Business Standard, through Khushboo Tiwari, has published an article analyzing SEBI’s evolving regulatory approach under Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey. Following the SEBI Board Meeting on March 24, 2025, the article highlights a shift toward a more business-friendly and balanced framework- one that embraces deregulation while reinforcing governance.

Key takeaways from the Board Meeting were shared on our LinkedIn page yesterday accessible at https://lnkd.in/gQfqS3pR

This shift by the Regulator in its approach has been covered by Business Standard quoting various industry experts.

As Sumit Agrawal, Partner at Regstreet Law Advisors, states:

“Between dinner-table jabs that SEBI rules from an ivory tower and the regulator’s own wariness that every profit is suspect, lies the path to balanced oversight. It’s encouraging that SEBI’s first board meeting under the new chairman prioritized trust-building – both within the institution and in the markets. His focus on clarity, stability, and engagement signals a refreshing shift toward faith over fear.”

Dr. M. S. Sahoo, former Insolvency & Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) Chairman; Mr. Sandeep Parekh of Finsec Law Advisors and Mr. Divaspati Singh of Khaitan & Co also shared their perspectives, with most viewing SEBI’s outlook as a positive step forward.

This regulatory recalibration has the potential to reshape market oversight, fostering a more transparent and growth-oriented ecosystem.
