Masterclass: Lessons From India's Landmark Financial Fraud Investigations

A masterclass that studies India's landmark financial frauds from the investigator's chair. Instead of retelling the stories, each lesson asks how the fraud was detected, how the evidence trail was rebuilt, which agencies acted and in what order, where the investigation stalled, and what changed in regulation afterwards. You will work through market manipulation cases (Harshad Mehta, Ketan Parekh, NSEL, NSE co-location), corporate accounting frauds (Satyam, Ricoh India, Cox and Kings, Cafe Coffee Day), banking and lending frauds (PNB and Nirav Modi, DHFL, Yes Bank, PMC Bank, Kingfisher) and systemic cases (IL&FS, Sahara, Saradha, Karvy, Adani and Hindenburg, strictly on the public record). The final chapter distils three decades of cases into recurring red flags, investigation failure modes and an early-warning programme. Built for chief compliance officers, forensic practice leaders and senior financial crime investigators and regulators.
