Delhi High Court Ends Arguments on Injunction in Sunjay Kapur Estate Dispute

The judge set written submissions as the next step before ruling on interim relief over foreign and domestic assets.

Overview

  • Priya Kapur and her minor son argued the Delhi High Court cannot issue restraining orders over immovable properties in the UK and US, saying title questions belong to foreign courts.
  • Senior advocate Akhil Sibal said there is no intention to sell shares in Aureus Investments Pvt Ltd that were transferred to Priya Kapur after Sunjay Kapur’s death.
  • Representing Karisma Kapoor’s children, senior advocate Mahesh Jethmalani urged the court to bar any use of the purported will to obtain title to properties abroad while its authenticity is contested.
  • Justice Jyoti Singh concluded oral arguments on the interim injunction, directed both sides to file written submissions, and listed the matter for further consideration on December 22.
  • Karisma Kapoor’s children and Sunjay Kapur’s mother challenge the alleged will, reportedly valuing assets at about ₹30,000 crore, and have also questioned Priya Kapur’s 2023 corporate role and raised concerns about a missing email attachment said to contain the document.
