Securities and Exchange Board of India Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey warned on Monday that digital platforms have enabled fraudsters to exploit investors through unsolicited messages and fake trading applications promising guaranteed returns. The regulator commissioned a survey covering more than 90,000 households, which revealed that only 36 percent of investors possess adequate knowledge of the securities market. The study found 213 million households recognize at least one market product, but participation reaches just 9.5 percent or 32 million households.

SEBI investigates unregistered influencers and escalates violations to platform providers such as Google, Meta, X, and Telegram for removal. The chairman stated the agency shares quarterly data on enforcement actions and has observed a decline in violations. The number of unique investors in securities markets has grown to 134 million through simplified onboarding processes and expanded awareness campaigns.
