Axis Bank Ne Ki Shikayat: Ex-Director Par ₹38.95 Crore Fund Diversion Ka Aarop, Police Jaanch Shuru!
Overview

Abhi abhi khabar aa rahi hai ki Axis Bank ne ek badi shikayat ki hai. Reliance Commercial Finance Ltd (RCFL) ke ek purane director, Devang Mody, par lagbhag **₹38.95 crore** galat tareeke se use karne ya 'divert' karne ka aarop hai. Isi wajah se, Mumbai Police ne ab ek preliminary inquiry shuru kar di hai.

Kahaani Shuru Kaise Hui?

Yeh poora mamla tab shuru hua jab Axis Bank ne Mumbai Police mein ek shikayat darj karwayi. Shikayat RCFL (Reliance Commercial Finance Ltd) ke ek purane director, Devang Mody, ke khilaaf hai. Axis Bank ka aarop hai ki Mody ne deliberate tareeke se ₹38.95 crore ke funds ko divert kar diya. Yeh paisa RCFL ke resolution plan ke tahat principal sacrifice ka hissa tha, jismein Bank ka kehna hai ki Mody ne zaruri financial details chupayi aur loan covenants ko toda. RBI ke rules bhi kehte hain ki agar company resolve ho jaye ya management change ho jaye, tab bhi purane management par actions liye ja sakte hain agar fraud hua ho.

Forensic Audit Ne Kya Ugaala?

Is shikayat ko support karne ke liye ek forensic audit report hai, jo Bank of Baroda (RCFL ke lead bank) ne Grant Thornton India LLP se karwaya tha. Yeh audit August 2019 mein shuru hua tha. Report mein kuch disturbing cheezein saamne aayi hain:

  • Jo ₹4,766.62 crore ke funds use kiye gaye the, uska 39%, matlab ₹1,867.89 crore, seedha linked entities aur group companies ko diya gaya.
  • Lagbhag 25% transactions, jinhe ₹1,199.29 crore tak track kiya gaya, woh circular tarike se RCFL mein hi wapas aa rahe the.
  • Uske baad bhi ₹557.37 crore ke funds ka end-use aaj tak maloom nahi chala. Yeh sab dikhata hai ki company mein pehle se hi financial opacity thi.

Police Aur Naye Kanoon Ka Chakkar

Mumbai Police ab is mamle mein ek Preliminary Enquiry (PE) kar rahi hai. Iska maqsad yeh decide karna hai ki kya koi cognizable offense hua hai, jiske baad hi FIR darj ki ja sakti hai. Axis Bank ne khaas taur par maang ki hai ki Devang Mody par naye Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 ke sections lagaye jaayein, jinmein sections 61 (criminal conspiracy), 316 (criminal breach of trust), aur 318 (cheating) shamil hain. Police ab company ke executives ke statements le rahi hai aur yeh PE report Commissioner of Police ko submit ki jayegi.

Aage Kya Ho Sakta Hai?

Agar PE mein saboot milte hain, toh Devang Mody par criminal charges lag sakte hain, jiska unke future directorships par bada impact padega. NBFC sector mein regulatory scrutiny badh gayi hai, aur aise mamle sabko transparent rehne ki warning dete hain. Jo investigation khatam hogi, woh decide karegi ki aage legal proceedings hongi ya nahi, aur yeh financial sector mein accountability ko aur mazboot karega.
