The Directorate of Enforcement has provisionally attached assets worth around ₹503.48 crore in connection with its money laundering investigation into Raheja Developers Ltd.
The action was taken under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002, over allegations of large-scale diversion of funds collected from homebuyers.
According to the ED, the attached assets include immovable properties belonging to Raheja Developers Ltd., along with properties held in the names of company director Navin M. Raheja and his family members.
Probe Based on Homebuyers’ Complaints
The investigation stems from multiple FIRs registered by the Economic Offences Wing.
The complaints were filed by homebuyers in relation to several residential real estate projects launched by Raheja Developers Ltd.
The ED is investigating the company, director Navin M. Raheja and other associated individuals and entities under the PMLA.
₹2,425 Crore Collected From Nearly 4,600 Buyers
According to the agency, Raheja Developers Ltd. mobilised approximately ₹2,425.99 crore from nearly 4,600 homebuyers across different projects.
The ED said evidence collected during the investigation indicates that substantial portions of the funds collected from buyers were allegedly diverted and used for purposes other than development and completion of the promised housing projects.
These findings formed the basis for the latest provisional attachment order.
Total Attachments Cross ₹1,600 Crore
The latest attachment follows an earlier ED action on April 28, 2026.
In that earlier order, properties belonging to Raheja Developers Ltd., related entities, director and promoter Navin M. Raheja, and his family members were attached with an estimated current market value of ₹1,113.81 crore.
With the latest attachment of ₹503.48 crore, the total estimated value of properties attached so far in the case has risen to approximately ₹1,617.29 crore.
ED Says Investigation Is Continuing
The agency has stated that further investigation into the matter remains underway.
Investigators are expected to continue examining money trails, property records, homebuyer payments, project accounts and related-party transactions linked to the case.
Why Real Estate Fund Oversight Matters
Real estate projects involve large public investments from homebuyers, often representing lifelong savings. When project funds are diverted or misused, buyers face delayed possession, financial distress and legal uncertainty.
This case highlights the need for strict financial monitoring, transparent project accounting and independent review of fund utilisation. Professional auditing services in india can help real estate businesses strengthen internal controls, verify fund flows and maintain accountability toward stakeholders.
