Event Summary

The United States — Federal Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has filed a chargesheet against industrialist Anil Ambani and former Yes Bank CEO Rana Kapoor, along with their family members and associated companies, for alleged fraudulent transactions. The CBI investigation revealed a conspiracy where Rana Kapoor, while at the helm of Yes Bank, approved investments of over ₹4,900 crore in non-convertible debentures and commercial papers of Anil Ambani's ADA Group companies, Reliance Commercial Finance Limited (RCFL) and Edge Home Finance Limited (RHFL), despite their deteriorating financial standing. In return, Anil Ambani allegedly facilitated concessional loans from RCFL and RHFL to entities controlled by Rana Kapoor's family. This arrangement resulted in a wrongful loss of ₹2,796.77 crore to Yes Bank. Additionally, Reliance Nippon Mutual Funds, a subsidiary of IndusInd Capital Limited, invested ₹1,160 crore in Morgan Credits Private Limited (a Kapoor family entity) and purchased ADA Group debentures from Yes Bank, also investing ₹1,750 crore in Yes Bank's high-risk AT1 bonds, which were later written off.
