A Mumbai SEBI special court, headed by Judge R. M. Jadhav, on June 10, 2025, imposed fines of ₹2 lakh each on Rijuta Finvest Pvt Ltd and its two directors, Dinesh Doshi and Anil Doshi, for repeatedly failing to furnish crucial documents during a decades-long investigation into alleged share-price manipulation involving BPL, Videocon International, and Sterlite Industries between April and June 1998. Despite multiple summons from July 1998 and a showcause notice in August 1998, the company and its directors failed to comply, obstructing the SEBI probe. They unsuccessfully claimed that the manipulation was tied to the late Harshad Mehta—a defense rejected by the court. Considering the advanced age and serious health issues of both directors—Anil with prostate cancer and Dinesh with liver cancer—the judge opted for a fine rather than jail time. Proceedings against two other directors, Vinod Shah and Dilip Shah, were discontinued posthumously.
