Insider trading is one of the most serious malpractices that exists in the market.
It is selling or buying securities such as equity and bonds by the insiders of a company, which includes the employees, directors, executives and promoters.
To prevent such acts and to promote fair trading in the market for the interest of common investors, Sebi has prohibited the firms from purchasing their own shares from the secondary market.
