Sebi panel on margin

FEBRUARY 17: The meeting followed a SEBI announcement on Monday that it will consider imposing such margins to curb volatility. 8220;The issue was too complex to be decided in one day,quot; Mehta said. Currently, FIs, mutual funds and FIIs don8217;t pay margins on share transactions.

Mehta said no time frame had been set for a decision to be taken. However, it is learnt that foreign institutional investors are against the idea of putting margins on deals.
