In its revelation, the EOW released key documents. The officials also found that the complainant in the case, Deepak Kothari, a director at Lotus Capital Finance Services, was deliberately denied a 26% shareholding in the company.
It is believed that the move might have done to avoid mandatory reporting to the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). The investigator also discovered that some of the Rs 60 crore may have been diverted to accounts belonging to sister companies.
