Basically, Enforcement Directorate (ED) ne Raheja Developers, uske promoters aur associated firms jaise N A Buildwell aur Riyasat Palaces ke ₹1,113.81 Crore ke assets ko provisional attachment order mein le liya hai. Ye sab EOW (Economic Offences Wing) mein files hui multiple FIRs ke baad hua hai. Authorities ka kehna hai ki 4,600 se zyada homebuyers se collect kiye gaye total amount, jo ₹2,425 Crore tak jaata hai, uska ek bada hissa siphoned off kar liya gaya hai. Yeh paisa projects ke alawa personal use ya unrelated investments mein use hua hai, aisa unka aarop hai.
Is investigation ke doran, ED ko searches mein ₹15.82 Crore ka bullion (like gold bars) aur ₹15 Lakh ki foreign currency bhi mili hai.
Raheja Ki Problem Aur Sector Ka Haal
Raheja Developers already National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) mein kaafi insolvency proceedings face kar rahi hai. Jaise ki, 'Krishna Housing Scheme' ke liye ₹38.89 Crore aur 'Shilas' ke liye ₹112.90 Crore ka default. Project delays bhi ek decade se zyada ke ho sakte hain. Yeh action pehle bhi aise developers ke khilaaf ho chuka hai jaise Earth Infrastructures Limited.
Raheja Ka Stand Kya Hai?
Company ne saaf mana kiya hai ki unhone kuch galat nahi kiya hai. Woh project issues ka blame external infrastructure delays par daal rahe hain aur keh rahe hain ki RERA ke supervision mein audit ho chuki hai. Lekin, RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) ki effectiveness par bhi sawal uth rahe hain, jise Supreme Court ne ek baar "toothless tiger" kaha tha.
Market Mein Kya Chal Raha Hai?
Meanwhile, industry mein DLF jaise bade developers strong revenue growth dikha rahe hain. Godrej Properties aur Prestige Estates Projects ne bhi FY26 mein record sales ki hai. ED ka yeh aggressive action, aur chal rahe legal cases, aise developers ke liye ek warning hai jinka financial track record saaf nahi hai. Isse sabhi developers par pressure badhega ki woh apne financial controls strong rakhein aur projects time par deliver karein.
