Nirav Modi Case, PNB fraud of 11400 Cr What actually happened in PNB scam? Let’s start from the concept. First, The Concept Let’s understand how things work. Some importer, let’s call him Nirav Modi or NM, wants to import...

PNB Fraud - An Overview

What’s the scam

The two employees of the state-owned lender “Punjab National Bank” directly used SWIFT — the global financial messaging service used to move millions of dollars across borders every hour — and bypassed the core banking system (CBS) which processes daily banking transactions and posts updates.It was a ploy to avoid immediate detection: the SWIFT messages used to raise overseas credit were not readily available in PNB's FINACLE software system as these were issued without entering into the bank’s CBS.

What Really Happened

It began with diamond firms approaching PNB for opening “letters of credit(LC)” for import of rough stones. As per the terms of the LC, a common banking tool, PNB would pay the overseas suppliers on behalf on Nirav Modi's firms within a certain period (typically three months) and recover the money from Modi. It's a market practice to extend the LC if the client (i.e, NM) is unable to cough up the money at the end of the LC tenure.

Fake Letter of Understanding (LOU) were issued

PNB employees issued fake LoUs, on the back of which foreign branches of a few Indian banks — including Axis and Allahabad Bank — gave dollar loans to PNB. These foreign currency loans were used to fund PNB's Nostro accounts and from these accounts funds moved to certain overseas parties. A Nostro account is the account an Indian bank (here, PNB) has with an overseas bank.

According to the note, LoUs were opened for pearl import for which total time period allowed by RBI is 90 days. Some of the overseas branches of Indian banks overlooked the rule. PNB has alleged "clear criminal connivance" of group companies of Modi and Gitanjali with some officials of PNB and other banks.

Overall Impact

In total 30 banks are affected due to this fraud among various state owned banks and PSUs’, some private lenders are also involved such as ICICI, Axis, IndusInd and Standard Chartered Bank

Companies involved in exports sector may also get affected as lenders might do more scrutiny and be more cautious ahead while issuing LOU’s and LC’s

Team Fintaxinfo Wish you Happy new Year.

Second amnesty under Taxation Laws (second amendment) Act 2016 is in operation till 31.3.17. under the scheme, declaration has to be filed before the specified tax authority only after the requisite money is deposited in Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojna and the due tax, s/c and penalty is paid. There is no procedure for the declarant to express his desire, in advance, of his intention to avail the scheme.
what would happen where--
a person, in order to avail the same, carries demonetized notes to bank but on the way is intercepted by police who takes in custody such notes and informs the income tax deptt --
1. whether the IT authority will not exercise his power u/s 132A and allow him to go to bank for depositing the money as per the scheme in the presence of some official?
2. what would happen if requisition is made u/s 132A by such authority?
In my view, the Board should issue some clarification so as to avoid harassment in such cases
