AI summary

The Supreme Court on 9 September 2026 remanded the SEBI vs Vedanta Limited case concerning the Cairn India buyback matter back to SAT for fresh adjudication. The Court flagged discrepancies in SEBI's trading data and inconsistencies in the investigation record, but neither upheld nor rejected the allegations. The matter remains pending before SAT with no final determination of liability. Vedanta Oil and Gas says it will continue its legal defence.

Likely market impact

No immediate financial impact; matter sent back for fresh review. Uncertainty over the SEBI case continues until SAT rules.
