Case Summary: Standard Chartered Bank v. The Custodian Court Decision: The Supreme Court partially allowed Standard Chartered Bank's appeal, affirming that the bank proved losses of Rs. 280.80 crores from securities transactions with notified broker Hiten Dalai, and holding that bonus shares, dividends, and interest accrued on pledged securities form part of the pledge and need not be returned to the Custodian unless redemption occurs. Cantriple Units worth Rs. 205 crores must be returned to the Custodian, and costs of Rs. 30 lacs awarded against Dalai were upheld.
