Have an investment complaint? Here's how to approach SEBI as it resolves more than 5,000 cases in June

India's market regulator, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), resolved 5,037 investor complaints through its SCORES grievance redressal platform in June 2026, slightly exceeding the 5,035 new complaints received during the month.

As a result, the total number of pending complaints dipped to 5,524 at the end of June from 5,537 a month earlier, reflecting a modest improvement in complaint resolution.

SEBI's data also shows that regulated entities took an average of four days to submit Action Taken Reports (ATRs), while first-level review complaints were resolved in an average of eight days.

However, 17 complaints remained pending for more than three months as of June-end, involving entities including Aditya Birla Money Limited, Finolex Industries Limited and HBL Power Systems Limited.
