Emerging India Focus Funds on Monday settled a case concerning the alleged violations of Foreign Portfolio Investor (FPI) rules with markets regulator Sebi on payment of Rs 64.35 lakh towards settlement charges.

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) initiated adjudication proceedings against the applicant and issued a showcause notice in February for the alleged violations of FPI Regulations and Intermediaries Regulations.
