Overview
- Two FIRs have been registered based on the IGR’s complaint, naming Amadea signatory Digvijay Patil, attorney-holder Shital Tejwani and sub-registrar R. B. Taru, while Parth Pawar is not named.
- The Revenue Department has suspended Taru over the Mundhwa registration, where records show a ₹21 crore stamp-duty exemption was sought and only ₹500 was paid.
- Officials say cancelling the sale deed could require payment of double stamp duty of about ₹42 crore, even as the government reviews the process.
- Ajit Pawar says he had no prior knowledge of the deal involving his son’s firm, calls it a mistake, and maintains no money changed hands in the ₹300 crore agreement for land alleged to be worth far more.
- Opposition parties have demanded a white paper and accountability, while Sharad Pawar has sought a fair investigation and met Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Monday.
