Real estate fraud investigations in Delhi-NCR

Overview

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted raids in the Delhi-NCR region targeting builders involved in fraudulent ‘subvention schemes’. The investigations focus on a builder-bank nexus involving AVJ Developers (India) Private Limited and Rudra Buildwell Construction Private Limited.

According to the ED, these companies promoted schemes promising ‘no EMI until possession.’ However, homebuyers and investors reportedly failed to receive possession even after several years, leading to significant financial losses. The investigations were initiated under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) following cases referred by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) pursuant to a Supreme Court order.
