entity is a part <strong>of</strong> the Southern Undivided Entities). After the execution <strong>of</strong> the sub-lease in<br />

favour <strong>of</strong> Ivory Properties <strong>and</strong> Hotels Private <strong>Limited</strong>, on 17 th December,1999, the said K.<br />

Raheja Hotels <strong>and</strong> Estates Private <strong>Limited</strong> created a deed <strong>of</strong> transfer <strong>of</strong> sub-lease dated<br />

29 th December, 2002 in favour <strong>of</strong> K. Raheja Corp. Private <strong>Limited</strong> (which is another<br />

Promoter company part <strong>of</strong> the K Raheja Corp Group (C.L. Raheja Group) to fully,<br />

completely <strong>and</strong> effectively transfer the premises <strong>and</strong> rights therein. The said deed <strong>of</strong><br />

transfer <strong>of</strong> sub-lease is subject to the existing lease in favour <strong>of</strong> Ivory Properties <strong>and</strong><br />

Hotels Private <strong>Limited</strong> who has granted the conducting rights to the Company. These<br />

leases <strong>and</strong> sub-leases are in force pursuant to documents executed between G.L. Raheja<br />

group <strong>and</strong> the C.L. Raheja Group for vesting <strong>of</strong> the subject property in the C.L. Raheja<br />

Group pursuant to the Family Arrangement executed between the said groups. The<br />

G.L.Raheja Group raised certain contentions in relation to the said sub-lease. Whilst the<br />

C.L.Raheja Group has always contended that the said transfer was to ensure the vesting<br />

<strong>of</strong> the properties in favour <strong>of</strong> the C.L.Raheja Group pursuant to the family partition, the<br />

G.L.Raheja Group raised certain questions about the modus <strong>and</strong> method <strong>of</strong> the said<br />

transfer, such as the said deed <strong>of</strong> transfer <strong>of</strong> sub-lease was surreptiously executed, the<br />

resolution for such transfer was not consented to by the G.L. Raheja group, the resolution<br />

did not give unbridled power to the directors to sell the reversionary interest to the said K.<br />

Raheja Corp. Private <strong>Limited</strong> in the said premises. The above contentions are not correct<br />

as per the C.L. Raheja Group as the said division was in accordance with the provisions <strong>of</strong><br />

the Family Arrangement <strong>and</strong> the C.L. Raheja Group has also <strong>of</strong>fered inspection <strong>of</strong> certain<br />

original documents executed by G.L. Raheja in their possession in this regard which<br />

establish this position. It may be noted that both the lease <strong>and</strong> the sub-lease are duly<br />

registered <strong>and</strong> have necessary corporate authority <strong>of</strong> K.Raheja Hotels <strong>and</strong> Estates Private<br />

<strong>Limited</strong><br />

The issues however remain unresolved to date <strong>and</strong> may have a temporary impact on the<br />
