This decision, which was passed by a bench of Justices Surya Kant and <\/span><span class=\"cf0\">Joymalya<\/span> <span class=\"cf0\">Bagchi<\/span><span class=\"cf0\">, aims to expedite the process of repaying depositors in the Sahara Group of Cooperative Societies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\"><span class=\"cf0\">The order comes as a major relief for small-scale investors who have been waiting for years to get their money back. The Supreme Court\u2019s intervention is part of a long-standing legal battle between the Sahara Group and regulatory bodies, centred on the repayment of funds collected from depositors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\"><span class=\"cf0\">The court\u2019s previous orders had mandated the Sahara Group to deposit billions of rupees with SEBI for repayment, a process that has been fraught with challenges and delays. The Solicitor General, Tushar Mehta, who was present during the hearing, played a key role in advocating for the swift and transparent distribution of the funds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\"><span class=\"cf0\">The total amount in the Sahara-SEBI refund account is an estimated Rs 25,000 crore. While some refunds have been made in the past, the process has been slow, leaving millions of depositors in limbo. This fresh disbursal of Rs 5,000 crore\u00a0is specifically targeted at depositors in the Sahara Group of Cooperative Societies, whose claims will be processed through the Central Registrar of Cooperative Societies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\"><span class=\"cf0\">The Supreme Court has specified that the amount will be repaid on the basis of a report submitted by the Central Registrar, providing a clear roadmap for the repayment process.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"News Desk\" title=\"News Desk\" src=\"data:image\/jpeg;base64,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\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/news-desk-17918.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">News Desk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The News Desk is a team of passionate editors and writers who break and analyse the most important events unfolding in India and abroad.
