Feb 16 (Reuters) - Shares of Indian bourse BSE BSEL.NS and brokerages dropped between 2% and 9.5% on Monday, after the country's central bank tightened norms for bank lending to stock brokers and other market intermediaries.

On Friday, the Reserve Bank of India issued revised norms on banks' lending to capital market participants, including higher collateral requirements for bank guarantees and a ban on lending for proprietary trading by brokers.

Jefferies said it sees BSE most affected by the new regulations on proprietary trading, which could result in a 10% earnings impact on the exchange operator.

Further company coverage: ANGO.NS

((reuters.briefs@thomsonreuters.com;))

Oct 15 (Reuters) - Indian brokerage Angel One ANGO.NS on Wednesday posted its third-straight quarterly profit decline, as last year's curbs on equity derivatives trading continued to limit participation of retail investors.

The company, which competes with startups such as Zerodha, Groww and Upstox, said its consolidated profit slumped 50% to 2.12 billion rupees ($24.08 million) for the three months ended September 30.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India in November last year raised the minimum contract value and limited weekly index options to one per exchange, making it more costly to trade in the asset class.

The move, aimed at curbing speculative retail trading in a segment where 90% of traders incur losses, hit trading volumes and revenue for brokers that rely heavily on derivatives turnover.

In October, Angel One said its gross client acquisition was down 41.9% and its total orders fell 26.3% in the second quarter.

SEBI said in August it is also considering extending equity derivatives contract tenures and limiting who can trade.

Since the curbs, Angel One has stepped up efforts to diversify into margin funding, wealth management, insurance, loan distribution and asset management.

Analysts had said the strategy could materially increase the company's non-broking revenue share over the next five to seven years, helping to reduce reliance on volatile derivatives income.

Its overall revenue during the quarter declined 20.7% to 12.02 billion rupees, Angel One said in an exchange filing.

Shares closed 1.7% higher ahead of results on Wednesday.

Updates with comments from regulatory official; rewrites

By Jayshree P Upadhyay

Mumbai, Aug 21 (Reuters) - India's markets regulator is considering fresh steps to cool the country's booming equity derivatives markets as it looks to curb trading in a segment where more than 90% of traders suffer losses.

The steps could include longer maturity derivatives contracts to product suitability rules that limit retail investor participation in riskier segments of the market, regulatory officials said at an event on Thursday.

A surge in derivatives trading over the last few years, driven in part by retail investors, has prompted the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to limit the number of contract expiries and increase lot sizes to make such trades more expensive.

To cool the market further, SEBI plans to increase the tenure of equity derivatives contracts, but the proposal is still at a conceptual stage, Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said on the sidelines of the industry event.

SEBI is also "open to" objective and simple criteria to define investors who are considered suitable to trade in derivatives, Ananth Narayan, a whole-time member of SEBI, said at the same event.

The regulator has so far stayed away from limiting retail investor access through suitability rules as these are tough to implement.

A SEBI research paper released last month showed that individual traders made losses of 1 trillion rupees ($11.46 billion) by trading in futures and options, a 41% jump from the the previous year.

Shares of stock exchange operator BSE BSEL.NS and discount broker Angel One ANGO.NS slid 7.6% and 6.7%, respectively, on Thursday following the comments. Derivatives trading contributes more than 50% to BSE's revenue, and three-fourths to that of Angel One.

Separately, SEBI also set up a dedicated unit to examine patterns of manipulation, the regulator's whole-time member Kamlesh Varshney said at the event.

The move comes after SEBI had temporarily barred U.S.-based firm Jane Street for its trading strategies that "manipulated" a key stock market index. Jane Street has denied these allegations and said its trading strategies were simple arbitrage.

Pandey added that SEBI would work with India's corporate affairs ministry and stock exchanges to build a regulated platform for the so called "grey-market", where unlisted shares change hands.

Adds details, background from paragraph 2 onwards

July 2 (Reuters) - India's Max Financial Services MAXI.NS said on Wednesday that its unit, Axis Max Life Insurance, received communication about unauthorized access to some customer data from an anonymous sender.

The company has initiated a security assessment and data log analysis, Max Financial said.

"A detailed investigation is also underway in consultation with information security experts to assess the root cause of the incident and take remedial action, as necessary" the company said in a statement.

Axis Max Life Insurance is a joint venture between private lender Axis Bank AXBK.NS and Max Financial.

Indian firms such as Angel One ANGO.NS, Niva Bupa Health Insurance NIVA.NS and Star Health STAU.NS and HDFC Life Insurance HDFL.NS have reported high-profile security breaches in the past 10 months.

The incidents prompted the country's insurance regulator to direct industry-wide audits of IT systems.

Cyber fraud cases in India jumped more than four times in fiscal 2024, causing losses of $20 million, Reuters reported earlier this year.

Internal government data as of April 2024 showed that individuals lost nearly $1.26 billion to cyber fraud at financial institutions since 2021.
