Pump-and-dump lands Arshad Warsi, wife, others in Sebi net

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) on Thursday barred several social media influencers from the securities market and impounded their unlawful gains, in connection with pump-and-dump schemes in shares of Sharpline Broadcast and Sadhna Broadcast.

Arshad Warsi and his wife Maria Goretti Warsi profited 29.43 lakh and 37.56 lakh respectively from the scheme, Sebi said. Besides the Warsis, Sebi’s two interim ex-parte orders also restrained another 29 individuals from buying, selling or dealing in securities either directly or indirectly until further orders.
