The AT upheld SEBI's monetary penalty of Rs. 30 lakhs against the appellants for violating Principle 4 of Schedule A of PIT Regulations. The tribunal rejected the appellants' arguments that information about a potential Facebook investment was not concrete or required disclosure until a binding agreement was signed. The AT determined that the company had an obligation to authenticate and promptly disclose unpublished price-sensitive information (UPSI), even if media speculation existed.

The tribunal found the appellants failed to make timely and comprehensive disclosure, thereby undermining market integrity and investor transparency.
