Surat NRI businessman claims 18.73cr fraud by CA, kin
Surat: A 54-year-old Surat businessman has filed a complaint at Khatodara police station against his company's chartered accountant and three of his relatives over an alleged Rs 18.73 crore fraud. The accused, Kailash Chandra Lohiya, is alleged to have removed Vijay Shah's name from the company he founded without his knowledge and failed to return the money Shah had transferred to the firm. Shah, a resident of Bhatar in Surat, lives with his family in Oklahoma, USA, from where he runs businesses in real estate, water purifiers and hotels across the USA, Thailand and India. He appointed Lohiya as the chartered accountant of his company, Hightech Water Solution Pvt Ltd, to manage audits and other operations. As frequent overseas travel kept him from managing all his ventures, Shah, in 2013, handed over the company's administration to Lohiya, made him a director, and transferred 50% shares worth Rs 6.43 crore to him. However, in 2017, Lohiya allegedly appointed his wife Deesha, mother-in-law Usha, and brother-in-law Pradeep Agrawal as directors without Shah's consent. The following year, Lohiya is accused of transferring Shah's remaining 50% shares to his wife without following legal procedures such as issuing a meeting agenda or paying stamp duty. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The 20 Most Beautiful Female Celebrities in the World Trips-Shop Undo He also allegedly filed annual returns irregularly and without Shah's signatures.

Ltd., to a partnership business, but the money was never returned. This is not the first complaint against Lohiya. Shah had earlier approached the DCB police station accusing Lohiya and his wife of cheating. Khatodara police have registered the latest complaint and begun an investigation.
