GeojitComtrade in NSEL Crisis

NSEL crisis is turning to be a well planned strategy of defaulters and brokers. It was stated that many investors claimed that the brokerage firms used their money & account details fraudulently. Udaipur-based NSEL investor Achal Agarwal invested his money through a well-known broker 
GeojitComtrade. Mr. Achal lodged a complaint against his broker and has alleged that his broker has swindled money under his name. Mr. Agarwal also learned about the unsought-disbursement of loan against Geofin Comtrade and Geojit Credits’ Ltd. These brokers together deceptively used Mr. Achal’s account and PAN details to invest their huge amounts on NSEL.

Agarwal told Business Line that the outstanding receivable amount mentioned on his name was shocking. The outstanding receivable amount mentioned in NSEL was Rs. 4 Crore whereas the actual amount was only 9.75 lakh.  Achal also mentioned that he has not taken any loan from anywhere for investing on the NSEL platform. He has also not received any such amount in any of his personal account. However, the actual trading amount of Achal Agarwal on NSEL platform through GeojitComtrade was Rs. 9.75 lakh.

The Bombay High Court gave instructions to the High Court Committee to seek KYC (know your customer) details from NSEL investors. Bombay High Court also asked NSEL and investigative agencies to be acquainted with the actual truth from the broker.

Mr. Achal has filed a complaint to the High Court Committee (HCC) on 4th July 2015. He has probed to investigate in this matter and consider this money laundering a serious manner. The forgery is done by Geofin Comtrade and Geojit Credits Ltd; a company owned by C P Krishna.
