Delhi High Court Orders Forensic Audit of Fortis Transactions in Daiichi-Singh Case
The Delhi High Court has ordered a six-month forensic audit to examine complex transactions involving Fortis Healthcare, the Singh brothers, RHT Health Trust, and IHH Healthcare. This audit aims to trace the dissipation of shares and assets linked to a Rs 3,500–4,600 crore arbitration award won by Japanese firm Daiichi Sankyo against Malvinder and Shivinder Singh. The court appointed S Ramanand Aiyar & Co to reconstruct the chain of events and identify parties involved, following a Supreme Court directive to investigate alleged asset diversion.
