Overview
- A committee led by Additional Chief Secretary (Revenue) Vikas Kharge is reviewing registration and revenue records, and two officials—tehsildar Suryakant Yewale and sub-registrar R. B. Taru—have been suspended.
- Bavdhan police registered an FIR naming Sheetal Tejwani, Digvijay Amarsinh Patil and suspended sub-registrar Ravindra Taru for alleged collusion to evade stamp duty, with officials citing a loss of about ₹6 crore.
- The May 20 sale deed shows roughly 40 acres transferred to Amadea Enterprises LLP for ₹300 crore; the 7/12 extract reportedly lists the land under 'Mumbai Sarkar' and the deal proceeded without a clear NOC via a power of attorney from 272 individuals.
- Documents show the deed was registered on ₹500 stamp paper, while officials say standard duty would be around ₹21 crore and that at least ₹6 crore in local and metro cesses could not be waived.
- Ajit Pawar says he has no connection to the deal and Parth Pawar asserts he did nothing wrong, as opposition parties seek a judicial inquiry and Industries Minister Uday Samant says his department granted no stamp-duty waiver.
