Congress vs Sebi chief Buch: Trading strategies in M&M, Pidilite, Wockhardt
Source: Business Standard
Mahindra & Mahindra, Pidilite and Dr.Reddy’s became the latest company names to be dragged in the so-called ‘Conflict of Interest’ battle against the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch by the Congress.
The Congress today claimed that Sebi chief and her husband Dhaval Buch received Rs 4.78 crore between 2019 and 2021 from Mahindra and Mahindra (M&M). A claim clearly denied by the automaker.
M&M denied the allegations as ‘false and misleading”. However, it clarified that Dhaval Buch was hired by Mahindra Group in 2019 “specifically for his expertise in supply chain and sourcing”, after he retired as Unilever’s global chief procurement officer.
“We categorically state that we have not, at any point, requested SEBI for any preferential treatment. We maintain the highest standards of corporate governance,” Mahindra & Mahindra said in an exchange filing.
