The Rotomac bank fraud began in 2008 and amounted to "misappropriation of funds, criminal breach of trust and violation of FEMA (Foreign Exchange Management Act) guidelines," a senior CBI official said, requesting anonymity.

A consortium of seven public sector banks had given Rotomac Global bank loans worth Rs2,919 crore since 2008, the CBI FIR has said. The amount swelled to Rs3,695 crore, including the accrued interest, because of repeated defaults on payment, the officials said.

The banking scam has surfaced in the backdrop of Rs 11,384 crore alleged fraud reported by Punjab National Bank, involving billionaire Nirav Modi and his uncle, Mehul Choksi.
