Government launches portal to help small-time investors of Sahara group’s cooperative society . . Hindu / 18 July 2023
Extract :
Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah on July 18 launched a portal to refund the money of around four crore small-time investors of four cooperative societies linked to the Sahara group of companies.
Launching the portal on the Ministry’s website, Mr. Shah said that 1.7 crore investors will benefit in first phase and claims upto ₹10,000 will be settled first. The money will be returned to the Aadhaar-linked bank accounts of the investors within 45-days, he said.
“Small investors are hit the most. Take the example of Sahara, case dragged on for many years, several agencies seized their assets. We invited all stakeholders including SEBI, ED, CBI, SFIO. Asked, can we devise a system for the benefit of small investors. All agencies filed a petition in Supreme Court which took a landmark decision that if all agencies agree, a committee under retired SC judge will monitor the reimbursement,” Mr. Shah said.
On March 29, the Supreme Court ordered the refund from Sahara-SEBI refund account to about 10 crore investors of the four cooperative societies. The court was requested that ₹5,000 crore from the Sahara-SEBI Refund Account may be used to pay depositors
“We will begin with ₹5,000 crore, once this is exhausted, we will approach the SC again. There is no scope of any fraud, those who have no invested will not get any kind of refund Many investors may not know how to use the use the portal, they can go to the nearest Common Service Centre and seek assistance,” Mr. Shah said.

My Take :
Dear Amitbhai Shah :
Congratulations for this long overdue initiative to help our small depositors of SAHARA group fraud
I urge you to :
Ø Have a COMMON PORTAL for all small depositors of all such fraudulent groups ( a depositor does not have to search among a hundred similar portals, each dedicated to one society / chit fund )
Ø Simplify the Depositor Registration and Login Process ( may be just 2 screens )
Of course , launch of this portal is unlikely to get thousands of “ Fraudulent Depositors “ described in my following 9 YEAR old blog , to come forward and lodge their claims !
You are unlikely to have to refund that Rs 5,000 crores and will have no need to approach the Supreme Court to release more funds
Incidentally , with interest earned by the various Govt Agencies over the past 9 YEARS, can you tell the public , how much is the TOTAL AMOUNT , as of now ?

Extract :
These days , Sahara-Shree Subroto Roy seems to be , Be-Sahara Shree !
He is in jail for past 3 months or so
And Supreme Court won't let him out on bail , unless he deposits Rs 5,000 Crores in cash and furnish a surety bond of an equal amount
Then within a few weeks , Supreme Court wants him to hand over to SEBI , Rs 24,000 Crores that SEBI claims he raised illegally from " Public "
But Subroto says ,
" What public ?
I am ready to pay-off all of my depositors , if only , they would come forward to claim their deposits
I have raised , a few rupees each ( Rs 5 - Rs 10 ), from millions of small depositors , all of whom , gave their postal address as , " Delhi-Agra Road ", or " Kanpur - Lucknow Road "
I just can't find them "
Now , all of us ( Supreme Court and SEBI included ) , know that ,
> Those Rs 24,000 Crores belong to politicians ( - most who got defeated in
recent Lok Sabha elections ) , businessmen / bureaucrats / film stars etc
> Each of them have given this in CASH to Sahara-Shree ( Range : Rs 10 -
100 crores )
> Sahara-Shree knows that they don't dare to publicly ask him to return
their deposits . He managed to render them be-sahara !
> Neither Sahara , nor SEBI have true addresses of those fake depositors
So , what happens now ?
> Subroto will be forced to sell most of his properties to raise money
> To ensure that there is no hanky-panky in sale of these properties ,
Supreme Court may appoint some world-famous Real Estate
Consultants to conduct e-Auctions for each of these assets
> SEBI will have a windfall of Rs 24,000 Crores that no one wants !
> SEBI will deposit it with banks and earn a fat interest - for ever
I would say , a smart way to convert BLACK money into WHITE money !

Two days back , newspapers reported that ,

* But it could find only a FEW claimants and could refund only Rs 55 crore so far !
Altogether , SEBI is claiming some Rs 37,000 crore from Subroto ( considering interest on those Rs 24,000 cr due to SEBI , 2 years back !
