The Central Bureau of Investigation filed a second chargesheet in the Reliance Home Finance case before a special court in Mumbai on October 1. Reports by NDTV Profit and Moneylife, citing the agency, said the filing names eleven accused: three former group executives, seven companies and a statutory auditor.
The CBI alleges that ₹7,429.16 crore borrowed by the housing-finance company was channelled through intermediary entities to Reliance ADA Group companies in breach of lenders’ conditions. It has alleged criminal conspiracy and cheating. These are prosecution allegations, not findings of guilt.
The case followed complaints from Union Bank of India, incorporating the former Andhra Bank, and other public-sector lenders. A first chargesheet on July 9 named four accused, taking the reported total in this case to fifteen after the latest filing. Further investigation continues. The reviewed reports did not contain a response to this new chargesheet from the accused; separate earlier statements about other proceedings cannot be treated as their answer to it.
