BENGALURU, Aug 14 (Reuters) - An Indian appeals tribunal granted Zee Entertainment partial relief from a securities market ban on Friday, allowing the television broadcaster to proceed with a fundraise through an issue of warrants.

Here are some details:

-- The Securities Appellate Tribunal, which hears appeals against orders passed by the Securities and Exchange Board of India, allowed Zee to issue fully convertible warrants to a promoter group entity on a preferential basis, an order showed

-- Shares of Zee ended 5.7% higher on Friday

-- In July, SEBI barred Zee from the securities markets for two months, and CEO Punit Goenka and Founder-Chairman Emeritus Subhash Chandra for a year

-- Last month, Zee approved the issue of convertible warrants worth 31.44 billion rupees ($329.5 million)

-- The tribunal said the company's debarment from the securities markets would continue apart from the limited permission to complete the warrant issue

-- The tribunal also extended by a week the deadline for the warrant issue, which was due to expire on August 14
