SEBI conducted a thematic inspection on 'Control over Authorized Persons' covering April 2022 to January 2024 and found lapses at the offices of two authorized persons — Merit Capital Market Services Pvt. Ltd. and Triventure Services Pvt. Ltd. — particularly around the use of trading terminals and operational activities. Following the inspection and the company's submissions, SEBI passed an Adjudication Order on June 9, 2025 imposing a penalty of Rs. 3 lakh on Motilal Oswal Financial Services. The company has already sensitized all its authorized persons through internal communications and training sessions to address the observations. The company has stated that the order has no material impact on its financial, operational, or other activities apart from the small penalty amount.
The Rs. 3 lakh penalty is negligible for a large financial services firm and the company explicitly states no material impact on operations, so this is unlikely to move the stock price meaningfully. However, it flags a governance/compliance gap in monitoring authorized persons that investors should track going forward.
