(RIL), while making the noticees responsible not only on their own behalf but also on behalf of the minor noticees, being their natural guardians.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The issue herein was that, 12 crore equity shares of Rs 10\/- each were allotted by RIL to 38 allottee entities on January 07, 2000. The allotment was made consequent to the exercise of the option on warrants attached with 6,00,00,000 &#8211; 14% NCD of Rs. 50\/- each aggregating to Rs. 300,00,00,000 (PPD IV) issued in the year 1994.\u00a0 Therefore, the allegation against the Noticees was to the effect that 6.83% shares that were acquired by RIL promoters together with Persons Acting in Concert (PACs) in exercise of option on warrants attached with Non-Convertible Secured Redeemable Debentures (NCD), which was in excess of ceiling of 5% prescribed in Regulation 11(1) of Takeover Regulations, without making any public announcement for acquiring shares.\u00a0 Moreover, since the promoters and PACs did not make any public announcement for acquiring shares, it was alleged that they had violated the provisions of regulation 11(1) of Takeover Regulations. Resultantly, adjudication proceedings were initiated under Section 15H of the SEBI Act, 1992 against 36 promoters and PACs, which includes the 34 Noticees and 2 other entities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Subsequently, certain preliminary issues were made pertaining to the jurisdiction, power of SEBI, which the Noticees believed should be adjudicated upon. And the adjudicating authority dealt with all the preliminary issues substantively one by one. While dealing with one of the preliminary issue to initiate proceedings after an inordinate delay, it was of the opinion \u201c\u2026In any event, even the delay, as argued, is not relevant to the present proceeding as the violation is a substantive violation in the nature of an &#8220;economic offence&#8221;\u2026\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Issues<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Whether the Noticees have violated the provisions of Regulation 11(1) of Takeover Regulations?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li>Does the violations, if established, attract monetary penalty under Section 15H of SEBI Act, 1992?
