The ongoing legal battle over the estate of late businessman Sunjay Kapur has taken a significant turn after the Supreme Court urged all parties to consider mediation instead of prolonged litigation. The dispute, reportedly involving assets worth around Rs 30,000 crore, has been playing out between his mother Rani Kapur, his widow Priya Sachdev Kapur, and other family members.

During the recent hearing, the apex court issued notices to multiple parties and strongly recommended mediation as a more practical path forward. The bench also highlighted Rani Kapur’s age, noting that extended legal battles may not serve her interests. Observing that such disputes could drag on for years, the court encouraged an amicable settlement rather than a prolonged courtroom fight.
