Tram Ventures Files Fraud Complaint

A complaint had been filed in January by Tram Ventures Private Limited against 32 Milestone Vistas Private Limited (formerly Apra Motels). The complainant stated that in 2021, Sharma and his associates offered a 3,000 sq. ft. unit (number 24) on the first floor for Rs 2.5 crore. Although the amount was paid, the necessary conveyance documents were not handed over, forcing buyers to chase the matter legally.

Floor Sold To 25 People

Further investigation revealed that between 2022 and 2023, a single key document for the floor was fraudulently made in the names of 25 other individuals. The floor was reportedly leased to these 25 persons for 30 years under another firm, Growth Hospitality Private Limited.
