ED arrests Delhi-based forex supplier in case linked to Rs 903 crore Chinese App fraud
New Delhi: The ED arrested a foreign currency businessman and one of the masterminds in a Chinese App investment fraud case involving over Rs 903 crore and seized incriminating documents during searches at his five premises in Delhi, an official said on Friday. Rohit Vij, the mastermind in the conversion of proceeds of crime into forex, was arrested on June 30 for his links to a fake investment app named 'LOXAM', claiming to be related to a reputed French MNC Group of the same name. The business entities and associates of Vij were searched under the provisions of PMLA, 2002, said an official. After arresting Vij, the ED produced him in a Special PMLA Court, which sent him to the probe agency's custody for five days. The federal agency had initiated an investigation against Vij and his associates on the basis of the FIR registered by Cyber Crime, Hyderabad. It was alleged that some Chinese individuals, in association with Indians, have defrauded various investors by luring and offering unrealistically high returns on investments through their fake investment app. ED investigation revealed that the tainted money was collected in the bank account of a shell entity, M/s Xindai Technologies Pvt Ltd, which was formed in the name of an Indian person, on the instructions of a Chinese national, namely Jack. The probe agency said Jack took the Internet Banking credentials and routed the funds collected through 38 mule accounts, which were subsequently converted into foreign currencies with the help of Vij and his associates through shell money changer entities like Ranjan Money Corp Pvt Ltd and KDS Forex Pvt Ltd, controlled by them, based in Delhi. Vij and his associates converted the tainted amount into foreign currencies, mostly in US dollars and UAE Dirham, through multiple Authorised Money Changers (AMCs)/Full Fledged Money Changers (FFMCs), and gave them to a Chinese fraudster through various middlemen through hawala channels. An amount totalling Rs 171.47 crore was laundered through M/s Xindai Technologies Pvt Ltd and subsequently converted into forex through M/s Ranjan Moneycorp Pvt Ltd and M/s KDS Forex Pvt Ltd. However, from the analysis of bank accounts of M/s Ranjan Money Corp and M/s KDS Forex Pvt Ltd, it was found that within a period of seven months, these entities, under the control and operation of Rohit Vij, converted Rs 903 crore of similar tainted money generated by Chinese perpetrators of fraud and other accused persons.

Global South should act collectively on key economic challenges: Sitharaman
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Friday emphasised the need for decisive collective action by the Global South to deal with multiple uncertainties arising out of fiscal constraints in several economies and evolving geopolitical dynamics. She was speaking at the Annual Meeting of Board Governors of the New Development Bank (NDB) at Rio De Janeiro, Brazil on 'Driving Development: Fostering Innovation, Cooperation, and Impact through a Multilateral Development Bank for the Global South'. Sitharaman said the meeting is taking place at a defining moment for the Global South, as the world grapples with multiple uncertainties arising from fiscal constraints in several economies, climate transition issues and evolving geopolitical dynamics. "In response to these challenges, our collective action must be decisive, inclusive, and forward-looking," she said. The New Development Bank (NDB) has been established by BRICS nations. She noted that MDBs play a pivotal role in complementing our efforts in tackling these uncertainties. "MDBs have a distinctive comparative advantage in their ability to catalyse both public and private investments by offering a package of technical expertise, concessional financing, and effective risk mitigation tools thereby widening our policy options," she said. In this context, Sitharaman added that NDB has emerged as a key partner -- channelising development finance, supporting resilient infrastructure, and fostering meaningful cooperation across the Global South through a pragmatic and responsive approach. "India reaffirms its steadfast commitment to inclusive, sustainable, and innovation-led development of the global south," she said. Sitharaman said India's efforts led to the landmark inclusion of the African Union as a permanent member of the G20 to ensure that the Global South plays a pivotal role in discussions about issues impacting them. She told the gathering that the Indian economy has demonstrated remarkable growth and resilience in the post-pandemic era. Strong focus on macroeconomic stability, targeted efforts to promote digitalisation and inclusive policy design have been instrumental in achieving this, despite facing multiple domestic and external challenges. "India is poised to remain one of the fastest growing economies globally in the coming years," she said. She further said over the past decade, NDB has emerged as a credible institution with its client focus, agile response and financing several key infrastructure projects. As the Bank enters its next phase of growth, it must focus on strategic priorities, she said. "Mobilising private capital is key to sustaining growth given the limited fiscal space and competing demands for public capital expenditure. NDB should play a catalytic role in unlocking private sector capital," she said. Special focus must be placed on tailored support for Small and Medium Enterprises, especially women-led enterprises, to ensure inclusive participation, economic development and promote gender equity, Sitharaman added. She said that NDB has shown that a Global South-led institution can deliver development solutions that are timely, trusted, and context-specific. The Bank should foster cross-country partnerships to promote knowledge exchange, policy innovation, and technical cooperation, Sitharaman said. "India stands ready to collaborate with NDB in sharing successful models, such as our achievements in digital public infrastructure, scaling up renewable energy adoption, for broader replication," she said, adding that robust governance and transparent institutional mechanisms are vital for enhancing the credibility and effectiveness of the NDB. Continued focus on accountability, responsiveness, and stakeholder trust must remain a priority to ensure the Bank's long-term sustainability, she said while assuring India's continued cooperation with NDB, the member countries, and the stakeholders in this journey.

PM Modi To Go To Iconic Boca Stadium During Historic Visit To Argentina
Last Updated: PM Modi's visit to Argentina marks the first bilateral visit by an Indian PM in 57 years. The visit aims to boost India-Argentina ties, focusing on economic and trade matters. India-Argentina ties are expected to receive a significant boost during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the South American nation starting Saturday, as per India time, according to Ajaneesh Kumar, the Indian Ambassador to Argentina. 'This visit is important from a bilateral lens. Although PM Modi has been here before in 2018, it was for the G20 Summit. This bilateral meeting that's happening between us will take place after five decades on an official level, where the Indian PM is visiting Argentina in this capacity," Kumar was quoted as saying in an exclusive interview with IANS. Argentina will be the third stop on PM Modi's five-nation tour, following Ghana and Trinidad and Tobago. His itinerary will continue with visits to Brazil (July 5-8) and Namibia (July 9). Previously, PM Modi attended a G20 meeting in Argentina in 2018. However, this will be the first bilateral visit by an Indian PM in 57 years, marking a historic moment. As part of the agenda, the Prime Minister will begin his visit by paying homage at the statue of General Jose de San Martin, Argentina's esteemed freedom fighter and national hero. He will then receive a ceremonial welcome and engage in delegation-level talks, followed by a lunch hosted in his honour by President Javier Milei. Argentina has been a strategic partner of India since 2019, and the two nations celebrated 75 years of diplomatic relations last year. 'In the evening, while returning, he'll take out a few minutes of his busy schedule and visit the Boca Stadium, because sports helps the people-to-people contact of both nations, and Argentina is known for its football across the world," added Kumar. Notably, India-Argentina bilateral trade more than doubled from 2019 to 2022, peaking at USD 6.4 billion in 2022. In 2021 and 2022, India was Argentina's fourth-largest trading partner. Argentina is a key supplier of edible oils, including soybean and sunflower oils, to India. In 2024, total annual bilateral trade between India and Argentina increased by 33 per cent to USD 5.23 billion, making India Argentina's fifth-largest trading partner and export destination.
