ED Issues Look Out Notice Against Anil Ambani: Report
A SEBI report allegedly found that R‑Infra, a Reliance Group company, had moved around Rs. 10,000 crore to other group companies through an undisclosed private entity without declaring it as a related party. New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued a lookout circular against businessman Anil Ambani, managing director of the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani (ADA) Group, according to a report by Hindustan Times. The agency is investigating allegations of loan fraud worth thousands of crores by his companies, sources told HT on August 1. The issuance of a lookout circular, or LOC, means that Ambani can no longer leave India without the permission of courts. As per the HT report, Ambani has also been summoned for questioning under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) on August 5. 'We have issued a LOC against Anil Ambani and issued summons to him on August 5 asking him to appear in Delhi for recording his statement under the PMLA in the loan fraud probe,' HT quoted an officer in the Enforcement Directorate (ED) as saying. The unnamed source also said that Ambani would likely be asked about various loans based on findings by the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), a statutory body under the government of India that regulates securities and the commodity market in the country. The HT report said that the ED searched the premises of 50 companies and 25 people, including senior executives, associated with the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group companies, last week. According to officials, the ED is looking into alleged financial irregularities and collective loan diversion amounting to more than Rs. 17,000 crore by multiple companies under the Group including Reliance Infrastructure (R Infra). According to The New Indian Express, a report by SEBI allegedly disclosed via ED sources accused R‑Infra of moving approximately Rs. 10,000 crore to group companies through an undisclosed private entity named CLE Pvt Ltd – without declaring it as a related party, possibly to avoid approvals from shareholders and audit panels – under the guise of inter‑corporate deposits, equity investments and corporate guarantees. According to the report, these transactions allegedly span across the financial years of 2013 to 2023, with total exposure to CLE reported at Rs. 8,302 crore by SEBI, and write‑offs reaching Rs 10,110 crore during the financial years (FY) 2017–21. Reliance ADA Group rejects allegations The Reliance ADA Group has, however, rejected these allegations, according to the TNIE report. A spokesperson of the Reliance Group said in a statement that the allegation regarding the diversion of ₹10,000 crore to an undisclosed party was a 10-year-old matter and that the company had stated in its financial statements that its exposure was only around Rs. 6,500 crore, the HT report said. As per the statement, R Infra had already publicly disclosed this matter on February 9 this year. 'Through mandatory mediation proceedings conducted by a retired Supreme Court judge and the mediation award filed before the Hon'ble Bombay High Court, Reliance Infrastructure arrived at a settlement to recover its 100 per cent exposure of ₹6,500 crore,' HT quoted the statement as saying. Per the report, the company also claimed that Anil Ambani had not been on the Board of Reliance Infrastructure for more than three years, since March 2022. The ED is also looking into allegations of illegal loan diversion of approximately Rs. 3,000 crore provided by Yes Bank to companies under the Reliance Group, Reliance Home Finance Limited and Reliance Commercial Finance Ltd, between 2017 and 2019. According to the HT report, ED officials had stated last week that Yes Bank promoters received money in their accounts just before the loan was granted to these companies.

Sri Lotus Developers IPO subscribed 74 times; beat peers Kalpataru, Keystone Realtors, Macrotech Developers
Sri Lotus Developers IPO subscription status: Bidding for the initial public offering (IPO) of Sri Lotus Developers Ltd ended on Friday, and focus has now shifted to the Sri Lotus Developers IPO allotment date, which can be announced either today or on Monday next week. The public issue received a strong response from the Indian primary market investors as it had been subscribed to around 74 times. Comparing the Sri Lotus Developers IPO subscription status with recently listed peers of the realty company, the Sri Lotus Developers IPO is far ahead of them. The extraordinary demand from institutional investors sets this Sri Lotus Developers IPO apart. The Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB) category alone saw an oversubscription of 175 times, reflecting strong institutional confidence in the company's business fundamentals, project pipeline, and market positioning. Sri Lotus Developers peer Kalpataru Projects, listed on the BSE and NSE on 1 July 2025, was subscribed around 2.30 times, while its QIB portion was subscribed slightly over 3 times. Another peer, Keystone Realtors, listed on the BSE and the NSE on 24 November 2022, had been subscribed to around two times, and its QIB portion had been booked close to four times. Another peer, Macrotech Developers (Lodha), IPO listed on the BSE and NSE in April 2021, had been subscribed around 1.36 times, whereas its QIB portion had been filled slightly over 3 times. On the reasons that fueled Sri Lotus Developers' IPO subscription status, Avinash Gorakshkar, an SEBI-registered fundamental analyst, said, "Several factors have contributed to the resounding success of Lotus Developers' IPO: a mid-sized company with a focused development approach and strategic location of company projects. The market mood also fueled Sri Lotus Developers' IPO subscription status." Promoters hold a 91.78 per cent stake in Lotus Developers, and 150 public shareholders, including Bollywood stars Ashish Kacholia, NAV Capital, Dovetail Global Fund, Minerva Ventures, and Oppbasket, hold the remaining 8.22 per cent equity stake. On September 16 last year, the company had raised ₹ 139.4 crore via private placement with allotment to investors including Money Spinners, Sera Investments, Smart Algo Solutions, NAV Capital, Dovetail Global Fund, Minerva Ventures, Yantra E-Solarindia, and Oppbasket. Further, on December 14 last year, it raised ₹ 399.2 crore via another private placement to investors including Ashish Kacholia, Abundantia Capital, Astorne Capital, AARII Ventures, Topgain Finance, Turtle Crest, Aminiti Builders & Developers, DRChoksey Finserv, Jagdish N Master, and Nurture Pranay Foundation. Ashish Kacholia invested nearly ₹ 50 crore in the company for 33.33 lakh shares, while well-known names in the film industry, such as Shah Rukh Family Trust, Amitabh Bachchan, Ektaa Ravi Kapoor, Tusshar Ravi Kapoor, Jeetendra Alias Ravi Amarnath Kapoor, Tiger Jackie Shroff, Rajkumar Yadav, Rakesh Roshan, Hrithik Rakesh Roshan, Sajid Suleman Nadiadwala, and Manoj Bajpayee picked 19.28 lakh shares in Lotus Developers for ₹ 28.92 crore. Anand Kamalnayan Pandit-promoted company will use ₹ 550 crore of IPO proceeds to partially fund the development and construction costs of ongoing projects, Amalfi, The Arcadian, and Varun, by subsidiaries Richfeel Real Estate, Dhyan Projects, and Tryksha Real Estate, respectively. The remainder of the funds will be used for general corporate purposes. Disclaimer: The views and recommendations made above are those of individual analysts or broking companies, and not of Mint.

Debunking The ‘Dead Economy' Falsehood: India's Vibrant Rise Rattles Naysayers
Last Updated: Global observers should pay close attention to India and learn from it as it marches ahead, redefining what a vibrant and innovative economy means in the 21st century The narrative of labelling India's economy as 'dead" is not just disingenuous and biased; it is also fundamentally flawed and disconnected from economic reality. India's economy today is vibrant and resilient, and this laboured and contrived narrative of doom overlooks India's explosive growth and chart-topping rankings. India is, in fact, experiencing a 'Goldilocks moment" of balanced and high growth, low inflation, and remarkable demographic dividends. Such rhetoric, often peddled by critics with vested interests through outdated lenses, ignores the avalanche of data that highlights India as a beacon of resilience and growth. As the world's fourth-largest economy ($4.30 trillion in 2025) and third in purchasing power parity (PPP) ($16 trillion), India is thriving. India's story is also one of triumph, lifting 250 million people from extreme poverty since 2014, and Ayushman Bharat (healthcare for 500 million), while launching audacious space missions, demonstrating that progress is multifaceted and undeniable. This duality, eradicating poverty while pioneering space, defies simplistic labels. As Søren Kierkegaard said, 'There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true." Let's examine the growth narrative itself. With a GDP growth rate of 8.2% for the fiscal year 2023-24, India has solidified its position as the fastest-growing major economy in the world, surpassing China (5.2%), the US (2.7%), and the EU (0.7%). The IMF forecasts 6.4% growth for 2025 and 2026, maintaining India's status as the fastest-growing major economy. Nominal GDP increased by 115%, from $2.04 trillion in 2014 to $4.30 trillion in 2025, overtaking the UK (2022) and Japan (2025) to rank as the 4th largest economy globally. In PPP terms, India accounts for 9% of the global GDP and has contributed 16.1% to growth over the past decade. These achievements are not mere coincidences; they reflect reforms such as GST (Rs 20.18 lakh crore collections in FY24) and PLI schemes (Rs 12.5 lakh crore production, 8 lakh jobs). The PLI scheme alone has attracted substantial global investments into key sectors such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, automobiles, and textiles, fundamentally transforming India's manufacturing capabilities. Apple's remarkable expansion in India, turning the country into a major hub for iPhone production, is strong proof of India's effective policy implementation. Biased critics change goalposts by ignoring PPP strength; India's $12,000 PPP per capita places it ahead of many peers in real purchasing power. They overlook important global rankings: 4th in forex reserves, 7th in gold reserves, 3rd in startup ecosystem, and 2nd in mobile phone manufacturing. India's low debt-to-GDP ratio (82%) starkly contrasts with over 100% in major economies, highlighting fiscal health. India is poised to accelerate and is projected to reach $5 trillion by 2027 (overtaking Germany for third place). Viksit Bharat envisions $30+ trillion by 2047 with a per capita income of over $18,000. As W. Edwards Deming said, 'In God we trust; all others bring data." This pace of growth underscores key strengths: India's increasing domestic consumption, driven by a young population and a rapidly growing middle class. With over 65% of its population under 35, India's demographic profile provides a significant demographic dividend that most other large economies cannot rival. This young workforce is boosting not only domestic spending but also innovation, entrepreneurial efforts, and productivity gains across various sectors. Equally noteworthy are India's advancements in frontier technologies and space exploration, demonstrated by ambitious missions such as Chandrayaan and Gaganyaan. The successful Chandrayaan-3 mission, which made India the first nation to land near the lunar south pole, and the upcoming Gaganyaan mission highlight India's emerging leadership in space science and technology. These achievements are not just symbolic successes; they showcase real capabilities in innovation, R&D, and technology, which are vital for future economic competitiveness. Looking ahead, India is thriving and poised for even greater achievements. By 2027, India is projected to leapfrog ahead, becoming the world's third-largest economy, surpassing Germany. By harnessing innovation, technology, strategic policy interventions, and its unparalleled demographic advantage, India is rapidly progressing towards the ambitious goal of becoming a developed nation, Viksit Bharat, by 2047. In conclusion, labelling India's economy as 'dead" is entirely incorrect and shows either egregious ignorance or intentional bias. India's economic story is one of extraordinary resilience, impressive growth, and immense potential. Instead of undermining its prospects, global observers should pay close attention to India and learn from it as it marches ahead, redefining what a vibrant, inclusive, and innovative economy means in the 21st century. top videos View all As Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said, 'यही समय है, सही समय है, भारत का अनमोल समय है."
