Delhi High Court Reserves Order on Interim Injunction in Sunjay Kapur Estate Case

The pending ruling will decide interim control of the late industrialist’s estate during the will challenge.

Overview

  • The court closed oral hearings, took all written submissions on record, and stated that no further filings will be entertained before the order is pronounced.
  • Samaira and Kiaan Kapur, children from Sunjay Kapur’s marriage to Karisma Kapoor, seek to restrain widow Priya Sachdev Kapur from dealing with the estate while their challenge to the will proceeds.
  • Counsel for the children and for Rani Kapur questioned the will’s authenticity, citing feminine pronouns, the omission of the deceased’s mother, lack of registration, and Priya’s position as sole beneficiary.
  • Priya Sachdev Kapur’s counsel denied any concealment or siphoning of assets, said a comprehensive, record-backed asset list was filed, disputed a ₹60 crore annual income figure, and flagged a Rolex claim as based on a fake social media account.
  • The dispute involves assets reported near ₹30,000 crore, and the court recorded that filings from Karisma Kapoor’s side and from Rani Kapur are now on record after earlier delays.
