Practical example
Implementation and evidence controls
- Freeze the applicable entity class, product, transaction date and official instrument version.
- Map every control to its legal owner, enabling provision, responsible function, evidence and escalation route.
- Retain Board/committee approval, policy version, system configuration, maker-checker evidence, exception approval and regulatory filing acknowledgement.
- Re-test the control after an amendment, product change, outsourcing change, merger, customer-risk reclassification or supervisory observation.
Practical Q&A
Which source should be opened first?
The product-specific current Regulation, followed by its current master circular and transaction-specific exchange/depository circular.
Is entity registration enough?
No. Continuing capital, governance, conduct, disclosure and audit conditions apply.
What is the minimum evidence pack?
Registration, policies, client/issuer documents, system records, money/securities reconciliation, disclosure/filing and review evidence.
Primary sources & verification — SEBI instrument-version gate
Reviewed: 22 August 2026.
SEBI master circulars consolidate a point-in-time regulatory position and may later be replaced or supplemented. Use the date embedded in this URL as a version marker and check SEBI’s current Master Circulars/Regulations list before treating any paragraph as the latest position.
Practical verification checklist
- Record the circular/regulation date and later amendments.
- Separate regulatory requirement from investment suitability or tax advice.
- Retain client/product/disclosure evidence for the decision.
Primary-source checkpoint
Use the controlling statute, notified rule/instrument, official portal and later authoritative treatment for the relevant date. This page remains an educational/professional reference.
