India’s Securities and Exchange Board (SEBI) has barred U.S. proprietary trading firm Jane Street Group from accessing the country’s securities market, according to multiple notices issued on 4 July. The regulator said the firm is “restrained from accessing the securities market,” effectively preventing it from trading Indian stocks, derivatives or other listed instruments.

SEBI did not immediately release the detailed order or specify the duration of the restriction. Jane Street, headquartered in New York, is one of the world’s largest quantitative trading firms and a major liquidity provider across global markets. The action removes a prominent foreign participant from India’s rapidly expanding derivatives market, though trading on local exchanges continues without disruption.
