Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Monday questioned the industrialist and Chairman of Reliance ADA Group Anil Ambani in connection with an investigation linked to the alleged contravention of the foreign exchange law.

According to the sources, Anil Ambani, deposed at the office of the federal agency in south Mumbai. The statement has been recorded as part of a fresh case filed under various sections of the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA). However, the officials did not elaborate anything.

Notably, Anil Ambani, the industrialist has appeared before the Enforcement Directorate in a money laundering case against Yes Bank promoter Rana Kapoor and others.

In addition, the income-tax department served Ambani with a warning under the anti-black money law for allegedly avoiding taxes on undeclared funds totalling more than ₹814 crores stored in two Swiss bank accounts in August of last year by evading ₹420 crores.

The Bombay High Court did, however, grant a temporary halt to this I-T show-cause notice and penalty demand in March.
