Market Impact

The legal proceedings in the India — Delhi High Court could determine the control and distribution of significant assets, potentially affecting the personal wealth of Rani Mukerji and Priya Kapur.

Legal Services
Event Summary

The dispute over the RK Family Trust has escalated, with Rani Mukerji issuing a cease-and-desist notice to Priya Kapur, asserting Priya's removal as a trustee effective April 6. Rani Mukerji claims this action is based on Clause 8.12(i) of the trust deed. She has also rejected Priya Kapur's attempts to remove her as a trustee. The core of the conflict involves Rani Mukerji's challenge to the very creation and administration of the RK Family Trust before the India — Delhi High Court, alleging that the trust holds assets rightfully belonging to her and was part of an attempt to divest her estate following the death of her son, Sunjay Kapur, in June 2025. Rani Mukerji has warned Priya Kapur of potential civil and criminal consequences for any unauthorized actions as a trustee after her alleged removal and demanded the handover of all trust-related documents.
