Priya Kapur dismissed claims by Karisma Kapoors children that Samairas college fees were unpaid. She presented a 95 lakh receipt in court and said she has been covering all expenses since Sunjay Kapurs death, calling the allegations incorrect amid the ongoing property dispute
Priya Kapoor on Karisma Kapoor kids allegations
For the last few weeks, a high-stakes inheritance battle over late businessman Sunjay Kapur’s personal estate worth thousands of crores has been playing out in the Delhi High Court. The dispute is between Sunjay’s third wife, Priya Kapur, and Karisma Kapoor’s kids, Kiaan and Samaira. Last month, Karisma’s kids accused Priya of not paying Samaira’s US college fees of Rs 95 lakh, while Sunjay’s mother, Rani, alleged that she has concealed assets. She has now responded to these claims.
Priya Kapur calls allegations factually incorrect
As reported by Law Beat, Senior Advocate Shyel Trehan, appearing for Priya, made the submission before Justice Jyoti Singh during the recent hearing. He was responding to an argument made by counsel representing Karisma Kapoor and her children, who had claimed that two months’ fees of Rs 95 lakh remained unpaid. Calling the allegations "factually incorrect," Priya's advocate produced a payment receipt of Rs 95 lakh and informed the court that the next installment is due in December. She also claimed that Priya had been independently bearing all educational and living expenses of the children since Sunjay Kapur’s death.
The latest hearing comes shortly after Priya’s lawyer, Rajiv Nayar, criticised accusations made by Sunjay’s mother, Rani Kapur, regarding alleged concealment of the late businessman’s assets. Nayar said, “I have filed a detailed list of assets, and every transaction is in the list of assets… No money has been moved abroad.”
The lawyers representing Rani Kapur claimed that Priya had concealed the value of Sunjay’s assets. Rani alleged that Sunjay’s salary was Rs 60 crore per year, along with luxury assets and a 6.5 per cent stake in Sona Comstar valued at roughly Rs 650 crore. However, Priya showed only Rs 1.7 crore in bank accounts.
About Sunjay Kapur’s property dispute
Ever since businessman Sunjay Kapur’s death, his family has been fighting over his will and assets worth Rs 30,000 crore. Karisma Kapoor’s children, Samaira and Kiaan, have moved the Delhi High Court to demand a share in the assets of their late father, Sunjay Kapur. They also accused Priya of forging the will and claimed that they have not received their share, which is worth Rs 1,900 crore.
