Overview
- On September 15, the Enforcement Directorate issued a provisional PMLA order to attach immovable properties linked to companies it says were owned and controlled by Satyendar Jain.
- The move adds to a March 2022 attachment of Rs 4.81 crore, bringing total attachments in the case to Rs 12.25 crore, which the agency says equals the alleged disproportionate assets.
- Investigators say associates Ankush Jain and Vaibhav Jain deposited Rs 7.44 crore in cash under the 2016 Income Disclosure Scheme and held assets as benami for Jain, a finding upheld by the Income Tax Department, the Delhi High Court and the Supreme Court.
- The ED says it will file a supplementary prosecution complaint as the money‑laundering trial continues at Rouse Avenue Court in New Delhi.
- In a separate graft probe over a PWD tender, the CBI recently submitted a closure report, giving Jain relief in that distinct matter.
