New Delhi: The CBI has booked a Karol Bagh-based company for allegedly defrauding its investors to the tune of Rs 10,000 crore by promising double returns on their investments in a year, officials said Thursday.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) registered a case against the company on Wednesday on the direction of the Supreme Court which in 2014 had asked the agency to investigate cases related to chit fund companies, they said. The CBI has booked tviexpress.com having a registered office in Karol Bagh area in west Delhi, its promoters and associates Tarun Trikha, Varun Trikha, Veena Trikha, Sikha Trikha, Shakti Sharad, Anoop Kumar and Kabita Ganguly in the case.
