Overview
- Two officials — tehsildar Suryakant Yewale and sub-registrar R. B. Taru — have been suspended over alleged irregularities in the registration and transfer.
- An FIR registered at Bawdhan names Sheetal Tejwani, Digvijay Amarsinh Patil and Ravindra Taru for alleged stamp-duty evasion causing a ₹6 crore loss, citing BNS provisions and the Maharashtra Stamps Act.
- About 40 acres in Pune’s Mundhwa/Koregaon Park area were sold for roughly ₹300 crore to Amadea Enterprises LLP, where Parth Pawar is a partner, despite the 7/12 extract listing ownership as ‘Mumbai Sarkar’.
- Records show only ₹500 was collected at registration against claims of a ₹21 crore liability, and officials say a separate 2% local and metro cess — about ₹6 crore — could not have been waived.
- Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis called the matter ‘prima facie serious’; Ajit Pawar and Parth Pawar denied wrongdoing, opposition leaders sought a judicial inquiry, and the Industries Minister said no stamp-duty concession was granted by his department.
