The Supreme Court disposed of the appeals following a settlement of nearly ₹1,500 crore between SEBI and the NSE. [^1]

The Supreme Court of India disposed of appeals filed by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) against the National Stock Exchange (NSE) on September 3, 2026. [^2]

Despite the earlier findings, Sebi issued an ex-parte interim order in July 2025 barring Jane Street from the Indian stock market and directing it to disgorge unlawful gains of ₹4,843 crore. [^3]

Jane Street, a US-based hedge fund, filed an appeal with the Securities Appellate Tribunal requesting that the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) hand over correspondence between the regulator and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) regarding a study on Jane Street's trades. [^4]

A bench comprising Justices J.B. Pardiwala and K. Vinod Chandran heard the appeals against orders from the Securities Appellate Tribunal (SAT). [^5]

The settlement amount of ₹1,492 crore included approximately ₹1,224 crore pertaining to the co-location case and ₹268 crore related to the dark fibre case. [^6]

Sebi accused Jane Street of executing strategies that distorted the Bank Nifty index by buying large quantities of constituents in cash and futures markets while building short positions in index options. [^7]

The NSE review was conducted in November 2024, and the Sebi ISD review was conducted in December 2024, both reportedly finding no evidence that Jane Street's trades influenced index prices. [^8]
