ED Books Myntra for Alleged Rs 1,654 Crore FEMA Violation
The government is investigating Myntra, an online shopping platform, for possibly breaking some rules about how they handle money from other countries.
They think Myntra may have been doing business in a way that wasn't allowed, potentially involving a lot of money.
This is because they allegedly acted as retailers when they should have been operating as wholesalers.
The government's agency is looking into whether Myntra followed the rules about how money from foreign countries is used in India.
Enforcement Directorate (ED) registered a FEMA case against Myntra.
The case concerns alleged Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) violations.
The alleged contravention amounts to over Rs 1,654 crore.
Myntra and its related companies are accused of multi-brand retail trade.
The ED claims this trade occurred under the guise of "wholesale cash and carry."
