HYDERABAD: The Central Crime Station (CCS) of Hyderabad city police investigating the multi-crore fraud by Karvy Stock Broking Limited (KSBL), have filed a chargesheet in court, framing charges against the accused.
The chargesheet names Karvy CMD C Parthasarathy and eight others including the top brass of the Karvy Group, who cheated IndusInd Bank to the tune of Rs 137 crore. Investigation into other cases against the group at CCS is going on.
KSBL is accused of fraudulently transferring shares belonging to its clients to its own demat account, which was not disclosed to the exchanges. It then pledged the shares held in these accounts with the lender banks — HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, IndusInd Bank and Axis Bank. KSBL credited the funds raised by pledging of client securities to six of its own ‘Stock Broker-own Accounts’ instead of the ‘Stock Broker-Client Account’. It did not report these six Stock Broker-Own Accounts held with various private banks, to SEBI.
