Lucknow: The Sahara India family has provided Rs 3,224 crore in maturity to 10,14,18 investors in the last 45 days. Of these, 2.17 per cent were due to delayed claims. Sahara has 4 crore investors across the country. Of those, the number of investors claiming delays is only 0.04 percent. In the last 10 years, the company has disbursed Rs 1,60,154.51 crore to 5,6,4,339 investors. Sixty percent of the cases have been reinvested, while the remaining payments have been made in cash, according to the company.The company has admitted that the payment has been delayed due to a four-year-long curfew imposed by the Supreme Court. So far, about Rs 22,000 crore has been deposited in the Sahara-Sebi account. In the last four years, 156 newspapers have been advertised by Sebi in four phases, but Sebi has given only Rs 108.10 crore to investors. Last year, Sebi said this was the last ad. No further claims will be accepted. So it can be said that there is no demand left. A spokesman for Sahara said the company had never been involved in chit fund transactions. Such misleading information is being leaked to the media. Sahara has always dealt with the law. The interests of investors are paramount to us. We have made payments to every investor. We have been in their service for more than 72 years. He said the company had three times as much money as it had to pay for Sahara’s various payments.
