Supreme Court Grants Rajpal Yadav Final Extension to Pay ₹2 Crore
· India · Hindustan Times, Live Law
The Supreme Court has granted actor Rajpal Yadav a two-week extension to deposit ₹2 crore in ongoing cheque bounce cases. The bench of Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana stated it had no faith in the actor, citing his past conduct in the Delhi High Court. This extension serves as a final opportunity for Yadav to comply with a September 8 order, which previously exempted him from surrender on the condition of payment. The court noted that Yadav’s mother possesses immovable property that will be leveraged to arrange the funds. The case stems from a 2010 loan default involving Murli Projects for the film 'Ata Pata Lapata'.
Why it matters
The court's decision provides a final window for the actor to settle his financial liabilities and avoid imprisonment, highlighting the strict judicial oversight in long-standing recovery disputes.
