Digital Desk
The Ludhiana police have registered an FIR against Sunil Kant Munjal, Director of Hero Reality Private Limited, and Nikhil Jain, the company’s Sales Head, following allegations of fraud related to real estate transactions. The complaint pertains to four flats purchased by a local resident, Falitash Jain, who claims to have paid ₹2.41 crore for the properties
According to the FIR filed at Sarabha Nagar police station, Falitash Jain alleges that despite making full payments to Hero Realty Private Limited’s office in Okhla Industrial Estate, New Delhi, the construction of the flats was not completed within the promised timeline. Repeated complaints to the company’s management reportedly went unaddressed, causing both financial and mental distress to the complainant.
Following these allegations, the police invoked sections 406 (criminal breach of trust), 420 (cheating), and 120B (criminal conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code against the accused. The investigation is currently underway, with authorities gathering evidence and examining the company’s project records.
Falitash Jain, a resident of New Madhopuri, Ludhiana, stated that he holds receipts and documentation confirming his payments. He claimed that despite repeated follow-ups with the Director and Sales Head, no resolution was provided, prompting him to escalate the matter to senior police officials.
Hero Reality, a prominent real estate developer, is now under scrutiny as the Ludhiana police investigate claims of alleged financial misconduct. The authorities are focusing on whether the company intentionally delayed the construction projects after collecting payments, and if the allegations of conspiracy and breach of trust hold merit.
The case highlights ongoing concerns about real estate fraud in the region, where buyers often face challenges in recovering funds or obtaining timely possession. Police have assured a thorough probe and indicated that further action will be taken based on findings.
No official statement has yet been issued by Hero Reality regarding the allegations. The investigation is expected to continue over the coming weeks, with potential implications for the company’s operations and accountability measures in its ongoing projects.
