Rs 2,434 crore ‘fraud': CBI opposes Jai Corp, Anand Jain's pleas against FIR

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Wednesday opposed the pleas filed by Jai Corporation Ltd and its promoter Anand Jaikumar Jain before the Bombay High Court challenging the FIR registered by the central agency alleging serious financial irregularities by the company and its promoters. The central agency had alleged defrauding of funds to the tune of Rs 2,434 crore from the public investors in real estate projects among other irregularities. A division bench of Justices Ajey S Gadkari and Rajesh S Patil was hearing pleas by Jai Corp and Jain seeking quashing of the FIR. The CBI, through advocate Kuldeep Patil, sought dismissal of the plea stating that the investigation in the matter was still in progress. The central agency justified its FIR stating that it was initiated based on the HC order of January 31. The CBI on February 12 had constituted a five-member SIT led by its DIG Sarah Sharma to probe the allegations. The HC granted two-week time to file reply to the plea to respondent Shoaib Richie Sequeira, the original complainant who had approached the HC through earlier petition seeking preliminary probe in the matter. The court also granted further two-week time to petitioners to file rejoinder to CBI and Sequeira's reply and posted further hearing after four weeks. The central agency had claimed that Jai Corp Ltd with Jain, its sister concerns, their directors and promoters, one Parag Shantilal Parekh and other unknown private persons have 'committed offences of criminal conspiracy, dishonestly inducing delivery of property, making forged documents for the purpose of cheating, using as genuine the forged documents and thereby caused wrongful gain to themselves.' The Jai Corp and Jain in April filed writ pleas in the HC seeking quashing of the CBI FIR and other interim reliefs, claiming that the action against them was arbitrary. On March 17, the Supreme Court had disposed of the appeal by Jai Corp against Bombay High Court order directing CBI Zonal director to form an SIT to conduct thorough probe into the allegation of fraudulent activities to the tune of Rs 3,000 crore by Jain. On January 31, the Bombay HC bench led by Justice Revati Mohite-Dere had passed a judgment on a plea by 61-year-old Sequeira. The HC had noted that there were 'national and international ramifications in the case.' The HC had also expressed disappointment over conduct of EOW and CBI showing inability to conduct a probe and stressed on the need for fair and efficient probe. The SC appreciated 'courage' shown by HC judges to pass the said verdict. The CBI FIR in question has listed allegations including that 'during May 2006 and June 2008, Jain and his group in their individual capacity and as directors/promoters of Jai Corp. Ltd, in conspiracy with sister companies of Jai Corp. Ltd., floated two entities i.e. Urban Infrastructure Venture Capital Ltd. and Urban Infrastructure Trustees Ltd.' As per the FIR, they 'mobilised funds to the tune of Rs 2,434 crore from the public at large, for the scheme of Urban Infrastructure Opportunities Fund for the purpose of real estate business at Mumbai & other places.' The FIR further stated that 'on June 31, 2006, Indenture of Trust (IOT) was registered by the two entities with Registrar of Assurances, Mumbai as settlor and trustee, to establish a venture capital fund and got it registered with the SEBI.' The disclosure of interest in the IoT allegedly stated that 'no transaction arrangement or investment will be made with another person with whom the director, officer, employee, etc. has some relationship and create conflict of interest'. The central agency said that in contravention of the declaration, the accused persons 'cheated the public at large and diverted funds by way of making investments/giving unsecured loans within the sister concerns.' The CBI further alleged that sister concerns of Jai Corp, over the years, showed the unsecured loans as losses on the basis of false and fabricated documents, so as to justify the constructions/real estate projects. Moreover, these corporate entities too 'executed forged agreements against advance paid for the purchase of benami land to justify the losses.' The CBI, in its FIR dated February 18, 2025, alleged that through criminal conspiracy, Jain, one Parag Shantilal Parekh, and their group diverted part or whole of Rs 2, 434 crore collected from investors by the two entities in 2006-07 to Mauritius and/or Jersey Channel Islands for incorporation of corporate entities at these places so as to divert the money collected from investors and banks. The FIR further stated that part or whole of Rs 3,252 crore availed as loan from Banks in 2006-07 by Navi Mumbai SEZ Pvt Ltd or part or whole of Rs 686 crore availed as loan from banks by the said company in 2003-04 too was diverted to the Mauritius and/or Jersey Channel Islands. The central agency further alleged that Jain, Parekh and their group diverted/laundered Rs 98.83 crore of foreign currency loan availed by Navi Mumbai SEZ Pvt Ltd from banks in 2008-09 to Mauritius and thereafter floated corporate entities to facilitate diversion of loan amount availed in India to abroad. In the end, it was alleged that the parent company of Jain, 'during 2010-17 fraudulently exported goods to Sarbags PTY Ltd, New South Wales, Australia and Assurance Products Corporation, California, USA on the basis of fictitious invoices/documents and thereby diverted the funds for their end utilisation.'

Silver Hits Another Record High Of Rs 1.11 Lakh Per Kg, Outshines Gold

New Delhi: Silver prices continued their upward rally on Wednesday, touching fresh all-time high on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX), supported by strong industrial demand and favourable market trends. Silver futures for July expiry hit a new all-time high of Rs 1,09,748 per kilogram on MCX, breaking Tuesday's record. The September futures jumped even higher, touching Rs 1,11,000 per kilogram. With these gains, silver is now trading nearly 25 per cent above its all-time low of Rs 88,050 per kg. Analysts believe the metal will remain firm due to supportive fundamentals, especially with a revival in industrial demand. They suggest that investors consider silver as a medium-term tactical investment. Meanwhile, gold prices slipped for the second straight session. Gold futures for August delivery fell by 0.2 per cent to around Rs 99,329 per 10 grams. This comes just days after gold crossed the Rs 1 lakh mark for the first time ever on the exchange. As silver continues to rise and gold shows signs of weakness, the gold-silver ratio has dropped to around 91, after staying above 100 for much of April and ratio indicates how many ounces of silver are needed to buy one ounce of gold and is often used to gauge the relative value of the two metals. According to analysts, the gold market is currently in a wait-and-watch mode ahead of the US Federal Reserve's interest rate decision on Wednesday. Other global triggers, including rising tensions between Iran and Israel and ongoing trade negotiations, are also being closely monitored by investors. Tata Mutual Fund remains positive on gold in the long run, citing continued buying by central banks and the Fed's monetary stance as key support factors. "Gold prices traded in a narrow range as investors await the US Federal Reserve's policy decision, scheduled for 11:30 PM IST. MCX Gold remained within the band of Rs 99,150 to Rs 99,750, while Comex gold hovered around $3,375,' Jateen Trivedi of LKP Securities said. 'The current trading range for gold is seen between Rs 98,500 to Rs 1,00,500 in the near term," he added.
