The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has filed separate money-laundering complaints against Reliance Infrastructure and Reliance Communications, both part of the Reliance Anil Ambani Group. The first complaint, filed on August 8, 2026, alleges that Rs 187 crore was siphoned from four NHAI toll-road projects between September and October 2010 through sham subcontracting arrangements. The second is a supplementary chargesheet against RCom, alleging that Rs 40,185 crore in bank credit was diverted to group companies, used to service foreign debt, and to buy personal assets abroad. Former executives Sateesh Seth, Gautam Doshi and Amitabh Jhunjhunwala have been named.
