this with a heavy heart as today I am being forced to bid adieu to a company of which I am a founder
I say with my head held high that today this company stands as a leader in the fintech world
Since the beginning of 2022, unfortunately, I've been embroiled in baseless and targeted attacks on me and my family by a few individuals
who are ready not only to harm me and my reputation but also harm the reputation of the company, which ostensibly they are trying to
protect."He also stated that "from being celebrated as the face of Indian entrepreneurship he is now wasting his time fighting a long,
lonely battle against his own investors and management
allegations of using abusive language against Kotak Mahindra Bank staff and fraudulent practices, which he has denied.He and his wife had
accused the bank of reneging on a promise to get him shares worth Rs 500 crore when Nykaa's initial public offering (IPO) was launched.Mr
Grover had filed an arbitration plea with the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) claiming the company's investigation
The SIAC, though, rejected his plea, giving him no relief in the matter.
