ED to Re-Summon Tina Ambani as SIT Probes Anil Ambani Group

Supreme Court-Ordered SIT Probes ADAG; Tina Ambani Misses ED Appearance

Tina Ambani, wife of industrialist Anil Ambani, on Monday skipped a summons issued by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with an ongoing money laundering investigation involving alleged banking and corporate fraud of around ₹40,000 crore linked to the Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG).

Sources said the federal probe agency is likely to issue fresh summons to Tina Ambani as part of the investigation.

SIT formed following Supreme Court direction

The ED has constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the alleged financial irregularities involving ADAG and its associated entities. The SIT is headed by an additional director-rank officer from the headquarters investigation unit (HIU) and includes around half a dozen investigators, PTI reported citing sources.

The development follows directions issued by the Supreme Court last week, which asked the ED to form a dedicated SIT to ensure a “fair, independent, prompt and dispassionate” investigation into the cases against the group.

CBI also probing ADAG

The apex court also directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which is conducting a parallel probe, to examine any nexus, collusion, connivance or conspiracy, if found, and to take the investigation to its logical conclusion.

ED action against Anil Ambani group

The Enforcement Directorate has been investigating Anil Ambani and his Reliance Group companies since last year. So far, the agency has registered three Enforcement Case Information Reports (ECIRs)—the ED’s equivalent of police FIRs—under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

The agency has also attached assets worth approximately ₹12,000 crore in connection with the case.

Anil Ambani, 66, was questioned by the ED last year over alleged bank loan irregularities involving group companies. Recently, Punit Garg, a former top executive of the group and ex-president of Reliance Communications (RCOM), was arrested as part of the probe.

The Anil Ambani Group has consistently denied any wrongdoing in relation to the allegations.
