The Managing Director of SpiceJet airline has been pressed with charges for duping a businessman crores of rupees on the pretext of allotting him company shares, the police said on Monday.

Arora claimed that Singh had promised him shares worth Rs 10 lakhs of SpiceJet in lieu of the services Arora gave to him during the time he took over the airline from the promoters.
"Ajay Singh provided a depository instruction slip which, later turned out to be invalid and outdated.
