Reliance Group Chairman Faces Fresh Questioning in Major Money Laundering Probe
New Delhi: Reliance Group chairman Anil Ambani on Thursday appeared before the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for a second round of questioning in connection with an alleged ₹40,000-crore bank fraud and money laundering case linked to his company, Reliance Communications (RCOM).
The 66-year-old businessman arrived at the ED’s headquarters in central Delhi around 10:30 am, where investigators began recording his statement under the provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
Ambani was earlier questioned in August 2025 as part of the ongoing investigation into alleged financial irregularities involving multiple group companies.
ED Attaches ₹3,716-Crore Mumbai Residence ‘Abode’
The fresh questioning comes a day after the ED attached Ambani’s Mumbai residence, ‘Abode’, valued at ₹3,716 crore, under anti-money laundering provisions.
Officials said the probe focuses on alleged diversion and misuse of bank loans obtained by Reliance Communications and related entities.
The ED has already registered three separate money laundering cases against companies belonging to the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG), examining alleged loan fraud and financial misconduct.
Supreme Court-Directed SIT Probing Alleged Financial Irregularities
The ED recently constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) following directions from the Supreme Court of India to investigate, comprehensively, alleged loan fraud involving Ambani’s business empire.
Investigators are examining financial transactions, loan utilisation patterns, and possible fund diversion as part of efforts to establish whether proceeds of crime were generated and laundered.
The case marks one of the largest ongoing financial probes involving a prominent corporate group, as authorities intensify scrutiny of alleged banking and financial irregularities.
