To verify if a broker is registered with the SEBI, follow the steps:
1. Visit the SEBI's official website at https://www.sebi.gov.in/. Scroll down to find the button labeled "Intermediaries / Market Infrastructure Institions" and click on it. This will take you to a new page. On this page, look for the button labeled "Recognised Intermediaries" and click on it.
2. Enter the broker's name in the provided search bar. Alternatively, you can browse through the information available offered by the "Type of Intermediary" section.

When you have disputes with a SEBI-regulated broker, you can proceed the following ways:

1st way: The recommended way is to contact the broker directly and negotiate a solution to the disputes. You are required to submit the after action report to the broker within one month.

2nd way: If you are not satisfied with the broker's reply, you can lodge a free complaint with the SEBI. Complaints are made through SEBI's special complaint compensation system SCORES. Its website is https://scores.gov.in/scores/; registration is required before complaints.

There are two channels to complain:
(1) Submit a complaint to the SEBI online.
