The Anil Ambani loan saga reveals a web of questionable financial dealings, regulatory lapses, and systemic failure in India's banking and legal system. Anil Ambani's companies took massive loans totaling ₹48,216 crores from Indian and foreign banks. These loans turned into NPAs. The State Bank of India (SBI) initially classified them as fraudulent. However, in a series of mysterious reversals and legal maneuvers—including bankruptcy claims, regulatory bypasses, and a near-total loan haircut—Ambani's companies were handed over to his brother Mukesh Ambani’s firm. Meanwhile, Canara Bank also reversed its earlier fraud classification of Ambani’s firms.
