The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has initiated a large-scale search operation across five states including Delhi, Mumbai, Jaipur, Chandigarh, and Bangalore in connection with the illegal sale of tickets for the much-anticipated concerts of Coldplay and Diljit Dosanjh's "Dil-Luminati."

Multiple FIRs have been filed in various states across the country, including one by BookMyShow against several suspects suspected of exploiting concertgoers. The FIR alleges that these individuals have been selling counterfeit tickets and significantly inflating prices, capitalizing on the high demand for these sought-after concerts.
This action was taken to investigate the illegal ticket sales and the financial networks supporting these scams, as well as to trace the proceeds of crime generated from such activities.
