IGR Panel Indicts Three in Pune Mundhwa Land Deal, Leaves Out Parth Pawar

The report focuses on stamp duty lapses, excluding him because his name does not appear on the registered documents.

Overview

  • A three-member committee led by Joint IGR Rajendra Muthe named suspended sub-registrar Ravindra Taru, power-of-attorney holder Sheetal Tejwani, and Amadea partner Digvijay Patil for procedural violations tied to the 40-acre transaction.
  • The IGR office gave Amadea Enterprises seven days to respond to a notice seeking about ₹42 crore in unpaid and cancellation-related stamp duty after granting a brief extension to November 24.
  • Findings cite use of a 'skip' option in the e-mutation system to treat government land as movable property and registration of a deed that paid only ₹500 after a claimed ₹21 crore stamp duty waiver.
  • Pune Police recorded Tejwani’s statement as part of ongoing FIR probes, while separate departmental inquiries by the revenue department and the settlement commissioner continue.
  • Officials state the Mundhwa parcel is Mahar Watan land held by the government and leased to the Botanical Survey of India, and a six-member panel led by Vikas Kharge will review all reports to determine further action.
