Intermediaries can now make payments to IPEF conveniently using various payment methods, including net banking, NEFT/RTGS, debit cards, and UPI.
Henceforth, the remittances to Sebi IPEF shall be made only through the website link, by providing the requisite information like name of the payer, PAN, mobile number, email ID, the purpose for which payment is made, the amount to be paid, etc, Sebi said in a release.
On Monday, the markets regulator came out with a circular that crediting of funds to its IPEF can be done only online and via a link given on the Sebi’s website.
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) had earlier allowed such payments through a demand draft also.
