April 22, 2025 at 11:55 amYou’re already thinking along the right lines by focusing on disclaimers, transparency, and avoiding any advisory role. Under current SEBI regulations, as long as you’re not providing investment advice, managing portfolios, or executing trades on behalf of users, you’re technically operating outside the purview of registration. However, algorithmic trading—especially when facilitated through third-party platforms—falls under increasing scrutiny, and SEBI has issued guidelines regarding the use of APIs and third-party algo providers. It’s advisable to include a clause stating that users are solely responsible for their trading decisions and execution. Still, I’d strongly recommend consulting with legal professionals like Themis Partner or similar firms who specialize in fintech compliance in India. They can help tailor your terms of service and ensure you’re not unintentionally stepping into a regulated activity, especially as SEBI evolves its stance on algo-trading tools and vendor oversight. -
