primarily engaged in advising the management in the merits and demerits
of legal issues involving the exchange. A major function carried by the
department is that the various rules, regulations and directives of SEBI
with regard to trading in the Capital Market by the brokers and
sub-brokers are brought to the notice to members and the investing
