This episode revisits one of The Ken’s most consequential stories from 2025.
When journalist Anand Kalyanaraman started investigating unusual patterns in India’s options market, he uncovered alleged manipulation on a massive scale. Someone was controlling market movements to guarantee profits—making billions while regular traders lost everything. SEBI identified Jane Street as the culprit; and the firm is appealing the allegation.
Today, Anand explains how the alleged scheme worked, why India was vulnerable, and what this landmark case means for the future of fair markets.
*The host mistakenly says that SEBI began investigating Jane Street in 2025. While the interim order was issued in July 2025, the investigation itself began in 2024.
