New Delhi: After the sudden death of businessman Sunjay Kapur, a bitter battle over his Rs 30,000 crore empire has begun. His mother, Rani Kapur, and ex-wife, Karisma Kapoor’s children have sought their share. They have alleged that the family trust, RK Family Trust, which is named after Rani Kapur, and his personal assets have been “usurped” by Priya Sachdev Kapur, the widow of Sunjay Kapur.
Karisma Kapoor’s children, Samaira and Kiaan, alleged in a suit that Priya allegedly forged the will and excluded them from their rightful share. Following the plaintiff, the Delhi High Court directed Priya Kapur to disclose a full list of all movable and immovable assets of the late entrepreneur. Now, let’s explore what assets and properties Sunjay Kapur leaves behind.
Sunjay Kapoor’s properties and assets
According to Forbes, Sunjay Kapur’s personal net worth at the time of his death was USD 1.2 billion, and he was one of the richest individuals in the world. A few months ago, his publicly listed company, Sona Comstar, was valued at Rs 40,000 crore. The company’s factories operated in nine countries, including India, China, Mexico, Serbia, and the US. His company also manufactures automobile parts for seven out of 10 car companies in the world and is also known for being one of the leaders in the EV revolution. It was founded by Sunjay’s father, Surinder Kapur, in 1997, and after his death, the businessman took over the company as the Managing Director.
Apart from Sona Comstar, the Kapur family has invested in the firm, Aureus Investment, valued at roughly Rs 8,000 crore. His estate also includes various other investments in tech and manufacturing startups.
