# Rajpal Yadav faces auction of ancestral property over Rs 16.61 crore loan 2026-08-07T09:30:11+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Central Bank of India has initiated recovery proceedings against actor Rajpal Yadav's ancestral property in Uttar Pradesh over an unpaid loan of Rs 16.61 crore. The bank has issued an attachment notice and warned that the mortgaged properties could be auctioned online on September 9 if the dues are not cleared, NDTV reports. The loan of Rs 5 crore was taken in 2005 for Yadav's directorial debut Ata Pata Lapata. With accumulated interest, the outstanding amount has risen to Rs 16.61 crore. The development follows a Delhi High Court order sentencing Yadav to three months' imprisonment in a cheque bounce case linked to the same loan. The actor's family says talks with the bank are ongoing to resolve the issue. ## Coverage - ndtv.com - ndtv.com - bollywoodlife.com Tags: Central Bank of India, cheque bounce, loan recovery, property auction, Rajpal Yadav Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/rajpal-yadav-property-faces-auction-over-rs-16-61-crore-loan/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
