The Delhi High Court on Wednesday asked Delhi Metro Rail Corp (DMRC) to furnish details of its bank accounts in India and abroad and how much money is lying in these bank accounts, even as the company cited financial inability to pay pending dues of over Rs 6,000 crore to Reliance Infrastructure’s subsidiary Delhi Airport Metro Express (DAMEPL).
Justice Suresh Kait gave the directions after DAMEPL counsel Prateek Seksaria argued that the metro rail operator has at least Rs 1,642.69 crore available in its bank accounts, and yet it is pleading its inability to secure its arbitration award.
