Sebi cancels registrations of 8 investment advisers for non-payment of renewal fees

Sebi has announced relaxed KYC requirements for Non-Resident Indians, Overseas Citizens of India, and foreign nationals. These changes will allow them to complete digital onboarding from FATF-compliant countries effectively. Intermediaries can accept KYC submissions without requiring physical presence in India. Video In-Person Verification is now permitted where in-person verification isn't feasible, enhancing compliance capabilities. The revised framework, effective from December 3, is aimed at simplifying the entire onboarding process.
