Delhi HC Hears Sunjay Kapur Inheritance Dispute
There is a big fight over the money and properties left by a man named Sunjay Kapur.
His widow, Priya Kapur, and the children of his second wife, Karisma Kapoor, are arguing in court.
Priya wants to claim Sunjay's assets in the US and UK, saying only foreign courts can decide that.
The other side says the will might not be real and that Priya took control of a company too quickly after Sunjay's death.
There is also a mystery about a deleted email that is important for the case.
The court will decide on December 22, 2025.
Priya Kapur argues that the Delhi High Court cannot stop her from claiming Sunjay Kapur's US-UK assets, stating that such matters must be decided by foreign courts.
The children of Sunjay Kapur's former wife, Karisma Kapoor, challenge the authenticity of the will and Priya's claims of an orderly corporate transition from Aureus Investments Pvt Ltd.
The opposing side suggests that Priya's reacquisition of control over Aureus Investments Pvt Ltd was rapid and opportunistic following Sunjay Kapur's death.
Arguments were raised regarding Priya's alleged failure to fulfill her mandatory duties under the will and a suspicious incident involving a deleted email attachment.
The Delhi High Court hearing focused on jurisdiction over foreign assets and the nature of Priya Kapur's corporate exit from Aureus Investments Pvt Ltd.
