The regulator said it has been undertaking several campaigns to educate the investors to be vigilant while taking investment decisions based on stock tips.

These entities are reportedly operating nine Telegram channels with more than five million subscribers to whom they were making recommendations on selected listed scrips. Such recommendations induced the investors to deal in the said scrips, thereby creating artificial volume and price rise.
