Overview

  • Sunjay Kapur’s children, Samaira and Kiaan, are challenging the purported will and seek an interim order restraining widow Priya Kapur from alienating assets from an estate reported at about ₹30,000 crore.
  • At the Nov. 14 hearing, their lawyer said Samaira’s US university fees were unpaid for two months, a claim Priya Kapur’s counsel rejected as fabricated and said all dues had been settled.
  • Justice Jyoti Singh cautioned counsel that she would not allow the proceedings to become melodramatic and directed that such matters not be brought to court again.
  • Priya Kapur’s side told the court the children have already received ₹1,900 crore from a family trust and maintained that their needs are being met.
  • Defending the will’s authenticity, Priya’s lawyers cited attesting witnesses and electronic metadata and said it was executed at an AIPL office; the High Court listed further arguments for Nov. 19.
