Delhi High Court Seeks Rani Kapur’s Reply to Priya Kapur’s Perjury and Dismissal Pleas in RK Family Trust Row

The case advances after the bench urged the Kapur family to try mediation over the estimated Rs 30,000-crore estate.

Overview

  • Justice Mini Pushkarna issued notice on Priya Kapur’s applications seeking perjury action against Rani Kapur and dismissal of Rani’s suit for alleged concealment and false statements.
  • Rani Kapur has four weeks to file her response, with a two-week window for rejoinders, and the matter is listed for hearing on March 23.
  • Priya’s filings cite affidavits and other documents to argue that Rani falsely claimed she never signed or saw the 2017 RK Family Trust deed.
  • Rani’s civil suit seeks to declare the 2017 trust null and void, alleging forgery, undue influence after a 2017 stroke, and diversion of her assets into the trust without informed consent.
  • The parallel dispute includes a challenge by Karisma Kapoor’s children to a 2025 will produced by Priya that purports to leave Sunjay Kapur’s personal estate to her, even as the court has encouraged mediation.
