Anil Ambani Moves Supreme Court Over SBI ‘Fraud’ Tag on His and RCom’s Loans

The appeal centers on alleged denial of a hearing with key documents supplied only after months.

Overview

  • The Bombay High Court on October 3 dismissed Ambani’s plea, holding that SBI’s decision did not warrant interference.
  • The petition has been filed in the Supreme Court, which is yet to list the matter for hearing.
  • SBI designated Ambani’s personal account and Reliance Communications’ account as fraudulent last year over alleged diversion of funds contrary to loan terms.
