The CBI has registered an FIR against IL&FS Energy Development Company Ltd and its executives over an alleged Rs 212 crore loan fraud involving Canara Bank. Searches were conducted at the Mumbai, Delhi and Noida premises.
The case follows a complaint by Canara Bank alleging that loans sanctioned by Syndicate Bank, which later merged with Canara Bank, were diverted from their intended purposes, according to a TOI report. A forensic audit reportedly flagged transactions involving group and associate companies, allegedly causing a loss of Rs 212 crore to the bank.
