Sammaan Capital Clarifies No Accusation in PIL Investigations
Sammaan Capital Limited is not accused in PIL investigations. EOW status report confirms loan repayments. Supreme Court directed CBI to examine FIR. SCL has been cleared by multiple agencies over seven years. Company now under new promoter IHC, with a USD 1 billion investment commitment.
While the company is not an accused, the ongoing investigations and the involvement of a PIL could still create some uncertainty or reputational risk. However, the clarification and confirmation of loan repayments mitigate significant negative impact.
The company is clarifying its non-involvement as an accused in ongoing investigations and has received positive confirmations from regulatory bodies and the EOW, indicating a favorable resolution of the matter for the company.
Sammaan Capital Limited (SCL) has issued a press release to clarify its position regarding an ongoing Public Interest Litigation (PIL) and subsequent investigations. The company emphasized that it is not an accused in any investigations stemming from the PIL.
The PIL led to the registration of an FIR by the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Delhi Police on December 15, 2025, naming several entities including Mr. Sameer Gehlaut, DLF Group, Vatika Group, Americorp Group, Chordia Group, and Reliance ADAG Group as accused. SCL stated it was considered a victim in alleged quid pro quo arrangements.
On August 11, 2026, the EOW filed a status report with the Supreme Court, confirming that Sammaan Capital Limited had received back all monies related to loans to the five groups mentioned in the PIL. Subsequently, the Supreme Court directed the Central Bureau of Investigations (CBI) to examine the allegations in the FIR. SCL reiterated that it is not an accused in this FIR.
Furthermore, the company clarified that a separate investigation by the CBI concerning transactions among companies of Yes Bank Ltd. promoters and Mr. Sameer Gehlaut does not involve Sammaan Capital Limited. The CBI application is restricted to allegations concerning Mr. Gehlaut, his promoter companies, and Mr. Rana Kapoor.
Over the past seven years, SCL has been cleared of any wrongdoing by multiple statutory agencies, including the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), National Housing Bank (NHB), Securities & Exchange Board of India (SEBI), Reserve Bank of India (RBI), and the EOW of Delhi Police.
Sammaan Capital Limited also highlighted that since Mr. Sameer Gehlaut divested his entire shareholding in 2023, the company has had no connection with him. The company is now under new promoter, Abu Dhabi-based International Holding Company PJSC (IHC), which has committed to invest USD 1 billion and controls the company's board.
