All the tension started to begin for DHFL when the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI)
charged them and others for duping a sum of Rs 34,615 crores.
There are about 17 banks that have been tricked by home loan provider DHFL.
Former CMD Kapil Wadhawan and director Dheeraj Wadhawan are among 13 others who
have been booked in connection with the case.
DHFL has borrowed a total of Rs 42,000 crore loans from banks like State Bank of India,
and Bank of Baroda and the highest being borrowed from Union Bank of India (UBI), out
of which DHFL has not paid a sum of Rs 36,000 crore.
The UBI (Union Bank of India) has asked one of the leading providers of risk, financial,
and corporate governance, KPMG to look into this matter.
They have been accused of syphoning off the money to their other companies or Shell
companies to buy assets at a cost of public sector lenders.
The rating agencies downgraded the rating score on commercial paper after the company
defaulted on debt payments.
The Resolution Plan
DHFL tried to make an impression in front of the investors that they would be repaying
them the full amount.
They devised a resolution plan that transformed its debt into equity and moved to the court
in the hopes that it would influence their plan.
Raid by ED
The ED made claims that they found several linkages to money laundering.
This money has been used for their advantage, which was intimately associated with the
company's promoters, especially Dheeraj Wadhawan.
They also found that this loan money was also linked to the criminal organisation, Dawood
Ibrahim.
Removal of Board of Directors
DHFL had no longer had power and control and was bankrupted due to which the Central
Bank of India decided to remove its board of supervisors and managers. The decision took
place under Section 45-IE (I) of the Reserve Bank of India Act, 1934.
First Arrest of Kapil Wadhawan
This created sensational news when the promoter of the DHFL, Kapil Wadhawan was
arrested under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
The ED had found out that his firm was allegedly involved in providing loans to the
criminal association of Dawood Ibrahim.
