The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has prohibited Zee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd (ZEEL), its Chairman Emeritus Subhash Chandra, and MD & CEO Punit Goenka from the securities market for varying durations due to an unauthorized pledge of ZEEL's Hyderabad land to secure loans availed by promoter-linked Essel Group entities. The regulator imposed penalties totaling Rs 1.48 crore on them for violating LODR regulations and failing to make necessary disclosures. SEBI found that Chandra misused his position and put ZEEL's asset at risk, while Goenka and ZEEL failed to act in good faith and safeguard the company's interests.
