JJPL was last sanctioned fund-based credit limits of ₹187.82 crore in 2012-13. The CBI said the account was restructured by the consortium in September 2013 but JJPL could not meet its repayment obligations as per the restructured terms. Hence, the restructuring failed and the account was classified as a NonPerforming Asset (NPA) in 2013.
According to the FIR, after JJPL’s account turned NPA, the banks conducted separate forensic audits, finding collusion in the commission of illegal activities, including manipulation of accounts, diversion and misappropriation of funds and related-party transactions. Each bank subsequently declared the account as fraud and reported the matter to the Reserve Bank of India.
