Help to investors who are victims of fraudulent schemes
In August this year, the Enforcement Directorate (ED), on the orders of a PMLA court in Kolkata, helped recover Rs 19.40 crore to investors who were victims of the Rose Valley Group’s fraudulent scheme. Earlier in May, SEBI had auctioned 22 properties of Rose Valley worth Rs 8.6 crore. In June 2022, SEBI had ordered the attachment of bank accounts as well as shares and mutual fund holdings of Rose Valley Hotels and Entertainment Limited and its then directors to recover dues of over Rs 5,000 crore of investors.
