However, their bails will continue till July 31, Justice V M Kanade of special court (For trial of Offences Relating to Transactions in Securities Act) held.
Parekh along with others including Canfina officials were convicted on March 14 as the court held that they entered into a criminal conspiracy to "siphon off Rs 47 crore".
Bangalore-based Canbank Financial Services (subsidiary of Canara Bank) was the victim of this scam.
Prosecution's case was that money belonging to Canfina were transferred to accounts with Canbank Mutual Fund in Mumbai by default, but instead of returning the money to Canfina, CBMF diverted it to the accounts of Parkeh and other stock-brokers.
These fraudulent transactions took place in October 1991 and January 1992. Total loss to Canfina was of Rs 47 crore and 70 lakh.
