šŗ The Bhasin Blow-Up: A Wake-Up Call for Retail Investors!
For years, Sanjiv Bhasin was the face of trust for millions of Indian retail investors. A regular on business news shows, his calls moved stocksāand emotions. But SEBI's recent 149-page interim order unveiled a chilling truth: Bhasin was allegedly front-running his own followers.
He wasnāt just giving stock tips. SEBI says he was tipping the public after his network had already bought the stockāand dumping it as viewers piled in, locking in quick profits.
This wasnāt amateur hour. It involved shell companies, insiders, and media leverage. One firm aloneāVenus Portfolioāclocked ā¹2,700+ Cr in trades in FY23. SEBI's evidence: 5,000+ calls, WhatsApp logs, CTCL terminal trails. The whole system was rigged, and the audience didnāt even know they were part of the game.
