thebalanced.newsSupreme Court Urges Mediation in Sunjay Kapur Family Estate Dispute
The Supreme Court of India urged mediation in the inheritance dispute involving the estate of late industrialist Sunjay Kapur. The court advised 80-year-old Rani Kapur, Sunjay's mother, to avoid prolonged litigation with Priya Kapur, his widow, over the Sona Group family trust. Rani Kapur alleges the trust was fraudulently created using forged documents during her medical vulnerability to transfer assets without her consent. The court issued notices to Priya Kapur and others, encouraging an amicable settlement while keeping the option to hear the case on merits if mediation fails. The matter is scheduled for further hearing.
