Arbitration award - Share Purchase Agreement (SPA) - What the law prohibits under Section 18A read with Section 16 read with the SEBI circular of 1st March 2000 is not entering into a call or a put option for sale but as rightly held by the learned Single Judge what it prohibits is trading or dealing in such option treating it as a security - Clauses 8.5 and 8.5.1 are not contract for sale or purchase of securities, but merely an option which the promisee may or may not exercise and entering into such option does not amount to making of a contract in a derivative. Such a contract was never prohibited. - HC
