After it withdrew the trading rights of Mumbai based Anugrah Stock Broking in September, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) has now declared the broker as a defaulter. This comes just two days after announcing Karvy Stock Broking, leading retail broker, as a defaulter.
The exchange said it had expelled Abugrah as its member from November 26. In August NSE had asked Anugrah to deposit Rs 165 crore. The exchange had said that the broker was running an unauthorised derivative scheme.
