SEBI Launches Three Game-Changing IT Platforms to Revolutionize Market Oversight and Ease Doing Business​

SEBI Chairman Unveils Digital Overhaul with New IT Infrastructure​

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has significantly upgraded its operational framework by launching several advanced IT platforms. These initiatives, unveiled by the Chairman on March 24, 2026, aim to drastically improve efficiency and speed in regulatory interactions. The key platforms introduced are the Single Universal Platform for Communications (SUPCOMS), an e-adjudication portal, and the Cyber-Sec Audit Compliance (C-SAC) system. These tools are designed to enhance external communication, digitize quasi-judicial proceedings, and strengthen cybersecurity supervision.

Streamlining Compliance with SUPCOMS Platform​

The Single Universal Platform for Communications (SUPCOMS) is set to transform how external entities interact with SEBI. This platform is specifically designed to replace older, email-centric modes of communication. Its implementation ensures that all official exchanges with external bodies remain easily and permanently accessible to both SEBI and the respective entities.

SUPCOMS creates a robust Institutional Memory for the board. By centralizing every official interaction, the platform guarantees a clear audit trail of all communications. This mechanism effectively prevents fragmented exchanges and the risk of broken reply chains, boosting overall transparency. The SUPCOMS application is currently live and accessible via the eServices portal at https://eservices.sebi.gov.in. All registered intermediaries and external entities can gain access by obtaining a login on the portal.

Digitizing Due Process with the e-Adjudication Portal​

To modernize regulatory processes, SEBI has launched a dedicated e-adjudication portal. This digital initiative offers a transparent alternate platform for all parties involved in quasi-judicial proceedings, starting with adjudication matters. The primary goal is to speed up quasi-judicial proceedings while ensuring a completely paperless regulatory framework.

The portal facilitates direct interaction between SEBI and external entities, including Noticees and their Authorized Representatives. Key functionalities include the ability to access and download Show Cause Notices (SCN) issued by SEBI. Users can also submit replies to SCNs, upload post-hearing documents, and submit various requests to the Adjudication Officer. Furthermore, the system supports participation in proceedings through a dedicated online hearings module.

This portal is fully integrated with SEBI's internal Case Management System (CMS), supporting the workflow across various internal departments. Market participants are strongly encouraged to utilize this facility for all adjudication matters via https://eadjudication.sebi.gov.in.

Boosting Security Oversight via Cyber-Sec Audit Compliance (C-SAC)​

The introduction of Cyber-Sec Audit Compliance (C-SAC) marks a significant leap in SEBI's cybersecurity supervision capabilities. This AI-enabled platform automates the analysis of cyber audit reports submitted by regulated entities. It is crucial for identifying compliance gaps, pinpointing risk areas, and generating actionable insights efficiently.

C-SAC analyzes the cyber audit reports submitted to SEBI via the SI Portal (https://siportal.sebi.gov.in). Upon submission of a compliance report, the system shares its detailed analysis with the submitting entity via email. Moreover, C-SAC generates risk scores and provides a comparative analysis of cyber audit reports among different Regulated Entities. This capability strongly aids in enhancing SEBI’s Risk Based Supervision approach.
