Overview

  • The Delhi High Court directed Zettai Pte Ltd to submit its acquisition agreement with Binance and all Singapore High Court filings by mid-August, reinforcing demands for transparency in WazirX’s governance
  • This order follows the conclusion of a second creditor vote on Zettai’s amended restructuring plan, with results now under independent verification by Alvarez & Marsal
  • Creditors led by Sudhir Verma and Kunal Dhariwal have petitioned for a Special Investigation Team to probe the July 2024 hack that drained $235 million from WazirX user funds
