5.Withdrawal of
recognition.-
If the Central
Government is of opinion that the recognition granted to a stock exchange under
the provisions of this Act should, in the interest of the trade or in the
public interest, be withdrawn, the Central Government may serve on the
governing body of the stock exchange a written notice that the Central
Government is considering the withdrawal of the recognition for the reasons
stated in the notice, and after giving an opportunity to the governing body to
be heard in the matter, the Central Government may withdraw, by notification in
the Official Gazette, the recognition granted to the stock exchange;
Provided that no such withdrawal shall affect the validity of any contract
entered into or made before the date of the notification, and the Central
Government may, after consultation with the stock exchange, make such provision
as it deems fit in the notification of withdrawal or in any subsequent
notification similarly published for the due performance of any contracts
outstanding on that date.
