Rs 91 crore credited in family accounts of former fund manager: ED

The Enforcement Directorate (ED), probing the alleged cheating of investors by Viresh Joshi, former chief trader and fund manager of Axis Mutual Fund, has said around Rs 91 crore was credited from shell companies to the bank accounts of his family members. The ED claimed to have details of 31 such accounts involved in the transactions. Joshi was produced before the special court on Friday and was sent to judicial custody after the ED did not press for his further custody for interrogation. The ED remand application in the case alleges that Joshi is associated with members of 'organised crime syndicate' engaged in large-scale front-running. It claimed further that money generated through the illegal practice was layered through various accounts, suspecting the proceeds of crime to be Rs 300 crore. '..the generated proceeds of crime… were routed through the accounts and managed and controlled by Viresh Joshi, including the mule accounts linked to 282 individuals/entities. He subsequently layered and placed the proceeds of crime in his family members' bank accounts and finally used it for acquiring several immovable properties,' the ED claimed, adding that these properties were bought in India and abroad. It alleged that no explanation or documentary proof was provided on the suspected transactions. The ED claimed that as part of his job profile, he was privy to confidential information which he shared for personal gain. Joshi's lawyer Manan Sanghai had told court that the Income-Tax department had frozen assets and his custodial interrogation was needed. It was also submitted that these issues were put before the SEBI in its probe.

CAG warns Goa of rising debt, calls for urgent management strategy

Porvorim: With Goa's debt burden continuing to rise, the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) reiterated its warning that the state needs a debt sustainability framework to achieve long-term sustainability in fiscal management. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now At the close of 2023-24, Goa's total outstanding debt stood at Rs 32,867 crore. However, when off-budget fiscal liabilities of Rs 706 crore were factored in, Goa's debt rose to Rs 33,573 crore, which is equivalent to 29.9% of the state's economic output. 'Given the increasing trend of committed expenditure over the last five years, state govt may work out a well thought out debt management strategy,' said the CAG in its report titled, 'State Finances Audit Report' for the year ended March 31, 2024. The CAG pointed out that govt breached the targeted debt-to-GSDP ratio for five consecutive years and faces steep repayment obligations in the coming decade. According to the report, 85% of Goa's public debt, that is Rs 23,470 crore, will come up for repayment within the next 10 years. Between 2024 and 2029 alone, govt must repay principal and interest amounting to Rs 16,580 crore. This includes Rs 5,149 crore in principal and Rs 4,057 crore in interest by 2026-27, followed by Rs 5,321 crore in principal and Rs 2,053 crore in interest in 2027-29. From 2029-30 onwards, repayments of Rs 16,912 crore in principal and Rs 1,922 crore in interest will need to be made. The state has also seen interest payments climb from Rs 1,465 crore in 2019-20 to Rs 1,889 crore in 2023-24, though the interest payment-to-revenue receipts ratio declined marginally to 10% in 2023-24 from 11% the previous year. While govt claimed to end 2023-24 with a revenue surplus of Rs 1,423 crore against the revised estimate of Rs 906 crore, the CAG pointed out that Rs 167 crore in revenue expenditure was either unpaid, short-paid, or not recorded in the accounts. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Adjusting for this, the surplus stands reduced to Rs 1,256 crore, the audit report said. The higher-than-expected surplus, the report said, was mainly because govt managed to spend only Rs 16,849 crore against the Rs 19,447 crore it was supposed to spend on social welfare schemes and economic services.
