audit done by own company
Actually, Sanjay Pandey had set up an audit company in the Chitra Ramakrishna case. This company belonged to Pandey only. Officials said that the questioning of Sanjay Pandey pertains to the working and activities of his company Isec Securities Pvt Ltd. The agency has already recorded the statement of former NSE managing director and chief executive officer Chitra Ramakrishna in this matter. Ramakrishna is currently lodged in Tihar Jail. He and the group’s former operating officer Anand Subramaniam were arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in March in the NSE co-location scam case.

What is co-location scam?
Some brokers of the country’s major National Stock Exchange, the center of share buying and selling, were given such a facility, so that they could get information about the prices of shares earlier than the rest. By taking advantage of this they were making huge profits. This was probably violating the demutualization and transparency based framework of the NSE. They were given direct access by co-locating the server with the help of rigged insiders. The Securities and Exchange Board of India received an undisclosed information in this regard. It was alleged that some brokers with the help of NSE officials were already taking advantage of the information. Considering the boom in NSC buying and selling, the amount of scam is estimated to be Rs 50,000 crore in five years.
