Fraud Case Against Vikas Oberoi of Oberoi Realty: FIR Unveils SHOCKING Details!
An FIR has been registered against the Managing Directors of IREO Group and Oberoi Realty Limited, along with seven others, for alleged cheating, criminal breach of trust, and forgery.
Gurugram: The primary accused in this case are Lalit Goyal, Managing Director of IREO Group, and Vikas Oberoi, Chairman and Managing Director of Oberoi Realty Limited. According to the FIR, both realty groups are alleged to have conspired to defraud allottees who invested their funds since 2013, resulting in significant financial losses for investors and the AIPL Group.
Background of the Allegations
AIPL has accused the IREO Group of embezzling approximately Rs. 1,777 crore, with around Rs. 1,376 crore reportedly recovered as advances from the allottees. Specifically, it is claimed that IREO collected Rs. 400 crore from about 70 allottees in the Grand Hyatt Residency Project in Sector 58, Gurugram, as part of an embezzlement scheme. This financial misconduct led to numerous cases being registered against the IREO Group, which were investigated by the Enforcement Directorate. Subsequently, Lalit Goyal was arrested.
