Agency officials said the private company was engaged in manufacturing high-value fine cotton fabric and home textiles.

As per the complaint, the directors and promoters of the company, in conspiracy with others, committed fraud by availing of various credit facilities and taking loans from a consortium of banks led by IDBI Bank and then allegedly diverted the bank funds between 2012 and 2018, and eventually caused a loss of around 1,245.15 crore to the banks, CBI said in a release.

The complaint was filed by IDBI Bank and also on behalf of four other members of the consortium - Central Bank of India, Jammu and Kashmir Bank, Punjab National Bank, and Indian Bank.

The case has been registered against S. Kumars Nationwide Ltd., which has manufacturing units at Dewas in Madhya Pradesh, Jhagadia Industrial Estate at Bharuch in Gujarat, and the registered office in Mumbai.
