The Delhi High Court has directed stock market regulator SEBI to conduct probe against real estate giant DLF for alleged mis-statement in its Red Herring Prospectus while launching its IPO in 2007.

In a piquant situation, insurance regulator Irda on saturday rejected the market regulator Sebi’s ban on life insurance companies from raising funds through unit-linked insurance policies and asked them to do business as usual. Taking Sebi head on in the turf war over who would administer Ulip (unit-linked insurance products) scheme, Irda, in a surprise order, told the 14 affected life insurance companies that it has set aside the Sebi ban.
Against the backdrop of Sebi banning 14 life insurers from selling ULIPs, the insurers are likely to meet here on Monday to discuss their future course of action against the order. SEBI had, late yesterday night, banned 14 life insurance companies from selling ULIPs–insurance products that invest in equity–on the ground that they were akin to mutual funds and were launched without obtaining registration from it.
Insurance regulator IRDA on Saturday said that ULIP policies, under which a portion of funds is invested in the stock markets, are safe and secure. “Policy holders of the Unit Linked Insurance Products (ULIPs) offered by different insurance companies are assured that these policies are safe and secure”, said IRDA chairman J Hari Narayan in a release that followed market regulator Sebi banning such schemes of select companies last night.
In a significant order late on Friday, market regulator Sebi banned issuance of Unit-Linked Insurance Plans, popularly known as ULIPs, by life insurance companies. Sebi has asked 14 private insurance companies, including market leaders like SBI Life, ICICI Prudential Life and Reliance Life Insurance, not to issue any more ULIP products. The Sebi order does not cover state-owned insurance major LIC. There is no immediate clarity on the fate of existing products.
