The case is in relation to a loan taken by one of Avantha Realty Limited’s holding company – Oyster Buildwell Pvt Ltd – from Yes Bank. The case also mentioned the alleged misappropriation of the loans between 2017 and 2019.


However, while the Mumbai sessions court has granted him bail in the alleged Rs 300 crore fraud, he will continue to be lodged at the jail in relation to several other fraud cases. 


Also on Wednesday, the Delhi High Court had sought a response from the Enforcement Directorate on the bail plea of former MD and CEO of YES Bank, Rana Kapoor, in a money laundering case related to the wrongful loss of Rs 466.51 crore to the bank.


According to a PTI report, Justice Manoj Kumar Ohri issued notice on Kapoor's plea and listed the case for further hearing on March 11. The trial court had bail to Kapoor last month even though it had granted bail to 15 other accuses. Also Read: Realme 9 Pro, Realme 9 Pro+ launched in India: Price, specs, features
