    Summary of IA/1330/2026 (Rudraveerya Developers Limited) Case: Interim Application No. 1330/2026 in Criminal Appeal No. 337/2026 Court: High Court of Bombay, Appellate Side Parties: - Applicant: Rudraveerya Developers Limited - Respondents: State of Maharashtra, Competent Authority (MPID Act), Economic Offence Wing Date of Order: 8th May, 2026 --- Outcome The Sale Certificate dated 31st August 2020 has been SET ASIDE. The Court found the auction process for the Prime Residential and Prime City projects (35 acres in Assandh, Karnal) was riddled with fraud, misvaluation, and procedural irregularities. Key Findings The Court identified multiple serious violations: 1. Gross Undervaluation: Property valued at ₹60 crores in 2018 was re-valued at ₹10.41 crores in 2020 through deliberate misclassification from "residential" to "agricultural" land—a reclassification the Court found baseless and fraudulent. 2. Inadequate Publicity: Auction notices were published in Punjabi and Chandigarh editions of newspapers with limited circulation in the Hindi-speaking Assandh district, rendering the notices ineffective. 3. Closed Bid Auction: The property was sold through sealed bids rather than open auction, limiting competitive bidding despite the authority's mandate to maximize recovery for fraud victims. 4. Fraudulent Valuation Methodology: The 2020 valuation misrepresented the land as agricultural despite its designation as "Sector 10" residential development zone. 5. Collusive Bidding: Common director (Rajan Goyal) participated in both Rudraveerya Developers (successful bid: ₹10.09 crores) and Brij Gopal Construction (competing bid: ₹8 crores), suggesting pre-planned bidding. 6. Incorrect Property Description: The location was wrongly marked on the auction website plan. --- Court's Orders - Appoint new Competent Authority within 4 weeks - Fresh auction with wide publicity in local media and newspapers - Return ₹10.09 crores to Rudraveerya Developers within 4 weeks - Investigate Competent Authority members and valuer Quiker Realty - Disqualify Quiker Realty from government valuations/auctions for 5 years - Replace current Competent Authority members The Court emphasized this was a "scam within the scam"—defrauding 13,000 NSEL victims of fair asset recovery.
