Sebi bars Wadhawan brothers from mkt
Mumbai: Capital markets regulator SEBI has banned Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Ltd's former Chairman and Managing Director Kapil Wadhawan, ex-director Dheeraj Wadhawan, and four others from the stock markets for up to five years and slapped a penalty of Rs 120 crore on them for diverting funds and fabricating books. They have also been barred from holding any key position in a listed company for up to five years. According to the SEBI investigation, the main culprits involved in the fraudulent scheme were Kapil Wadhawan and his brother Dheeraj, who have been fined Rs 27 crore each. Rakesh Wadhawan, who was Non-Executive Chairman, and Sarang Wadhawan, a former Non-Executive Director, were also involved through their roles on DHFL's board and face penalties of Rs 20.75 crore each. Besides, Harshil Mehta, who was Joint Managing Director & CEO and Santosh Sharma, a former CFO of the company, have been fined Rs 11.75 crore and Rs 12.75 crore, respectively. The SEBI has stated in its order that since 2006, DHFL, along with its promoters, directors, and key managerial personnel, have engaged and participated in an 'egregiously fraudulent scheme' to divert funds to 'Bandra Book Entities' (BBEs) linked to the promoters. DHFL's loans to BBEs rose to a staggering Rs 14,040.5 crore by March 31, 2019. The order states that the promoters issued huge unsecured loans to these entities despite the fact that they did not have any assets or business. These loans were also falsely recorded as retail housing investigation has found that the modus operandi involved was to first extend large unsecured loans to these BBEs, even though they had no net worth, assets, or cash flows to justify such exposure. Second, all standard loan appraisal processes were deliberately bypassed.

Workers' share not deposited, ESIC freezes bank account of contractor
TIRUNELVELI: The sub-regional office of Employees' State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) on Wednesday froze the bank account of Raam & Co, which supplies manpower to Tirunelveli corporation, and confiscated Rs 72 lakh towards penalty after the agency was allegedly found to have swindled the ESI contribution of 887 sanitation workers. The ESIC action comes after Raam & Co failed to respond to its show-cause notice and pay Rs 72 lakh penalty. 'Till the process to unfreeze the bank account is completed, Raam & Co cannot use it for any transaction,' said sources. B Radha Sankar, an activist, and a few sanitation workers submitted several petitions stating Raam & Co deducted ESI contribution from workers for nearly 20 months but did not remit it to ESIC. When contacted, Tirunelveli Corporation Commissioner Monika Rana said, 'We received a notice from the ESIC and instructed Raam & Co to fulfil the requirements. We also served a separate notice to the agency.' K Senthil, an administrator of Raam & Co, said they were taking steps to enrol sanitation workers with the ESIC. 'We have practical difficulties in registering workers who are aged above 50. We faced data mismatch errors while submitting their documents. We have already paid ESI contributions for a portion of the workers,' he added.

BESCOM assistant engineer molested, robbed at Bengaluru PG
BENGALURU: A 30-year-old BESCOM assistant engineer was molested and robbed of her two mobile phones by an unidentified knife-wielding miscreant at her room in a ladies paying guest accommodation at Judicial Layout on Monday. The incident happened between 3 pm and 3.30 pm, when the victim was in her room on the third floor of Shivas Ladies PG in Judicial Layout. After hearing somebody knocking on the door, she opened, assuming it to be somebody from the PG. The man pushed her inside threatening her at knife point and closed the door. After molesting her, he asked her to remove her gold bangles. As she was unable to remove, the accused asked her to give him money. She asked him to take money from her vanity bag that was on the bed. When the accused turned to take the bag, she pushed him and ran inside the bathroom and locked herself. When she started screaming for help, the accused took her two mobile phones that were on the bed and fled. The victim had joined the PG a fortnight back. The victim informed the matter to the police immediately and filed a complaint. 'The police found both the mobile phones of the victim in a bush next to the PG. We suspect that the accused had thrown the phones and escaped. The accused must have observed the movements of the victim. The phones, including one iPhone, are worth about Rs 1.05 lakh. We are checking the CCTVs of the PG and in the vicinity to get leads,' said the police. 'The accused is yet to be arrested,' VJ Sajeeth, DCP (North East) said. The Yelahanka police have registered a case.
