thebalanced.newsSupreme Court Stays Director Appointments in Kapur Family Dispute, Urges Mediation
The Supreme Court has intervened in the ongoing inheritance dispute within the Kapur family, involving late businessman Sunjay Kapur's mother, Rani Kapur, and his wife, Priya Kapur. The court granted interim relief to Rani Kapur by staying the appointment of two independent directors and changes to banking signatories at Raghuvanshi Investment Pvt Ltd (RIPL), a key company holding family assets. The bench urged all parties to engage sincerely in mediation led by former Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, emphasizing the need for an amicable resolution to avoid prolonged litigation, especially considering Rani Kapur's advanced age.
