Symphony Limited, a leading company listed on NSE and BSE, has officially reported an insider trading violation concerning an immediate relative of a Designated Person under the SEBI (Prohibition of Insider Trading) Regulations, 2015 (SEBI PIT Regulations).

The company has deemed this incident a violation of Regulation 9 read with Schedule B of SEBI PIT Regulations, as well as a breach of its internal Code of Conduct.
Given the small scale of the transaction and the lack of intent to violate trading norms, Symphony Limited has decided to issue only a warning letter to the involved party. The company emphasized that no undue gains were made, and the trade was carried out inadvertently. However, the designated person has been issued a fresh copy of the Insider Trading Code as a precautionary measure. Further, the company has warned that stricter actions will be taken in case of any subsequent violations.
As per the disclosure, there have been no previous instances of violations by the involved individual since the last financial year. Additionally, no monetary penalty has been imposed or collected in connection with this case.
