The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) conducted a probe in respect of buying, selling and dealing in the shares of ING during August 2011 to May 2013.
It was alleged that Vijayamohan had offloaded shares of the private sector bank, which were valued over Rs 5 lakh between March and May 2013. However, he did not make any disclosure to the company and stock exchanges about the transaction within two working days.
While proceedings against Vijayamohan was in progress, he offered to settle the matter on payment of Rs 2.04 lakh without admitting or denying any violation.
