Sebi on Friday imposed Rs 5 lakh fine on Videocon Group Founder Venugopal Dhoot for not making disclosures about his interest in Supreme Energy as well as for not disclosing that Quality Techno Advisors Pvt Ltd (QTAPL) and Credential Finance Ltd (CFL) were related parties with respect to certain transactions.
The order came after Sebi conducted an examination following media reports published in March 2018 regarding certain ‘quid pro quo’ arrangements between Venugopal Dhoot and former Managing Director and Chief Executive Director of ICICI Bank Ltd Chanda Kochhar in lieu of grant of certain credit facilities by ICICI Bank to some entities belonging to the Videocon Group.
