2021 has gotten off to a rocky start for Reliance Industries.

Last week, SEBI fined the conglomerate and its Chairman Mukesh Ambani a total of ₹40cr ($5.48m) for allegedly violating share trading rules in 2007.

This involved hiring 12 shell companies to take short positions on RPL future contracts in the derivatives market using inside information and in violation of SEBI guidelines. All to make a killing from the stake sale.
