Overview

• A Special Investigation Team searched Siddhartha Sharma’s locked Guwahati apartment in Datalpara under a magistrate’s watch after breaking the lock.
• Sharma said the vast majority of roughly 38,000 recordings are owned by production houses and labels, with Zubeen Garg typically paid one-time recording fees.
• He described Zubeen Garg Music LLP, formed in 2021, as a small venture with about 20 releases, total investment near Rs 10 lakh, and a 60 percent stake held by the singer.
• According to Sharma, IPRS royalties for compositions were credited to the singer’s personal account and will now legally pass to his wife, Garima Garg.
• Sharma rejected claims of financial exploitation, said he has cooperated with investigators, and noted the processes follow Garg’s death in Singapore on September 19.
