14 Nov
Summary
- A chemical supplier was defrauded of Rs 4.11 lakh.
- The alleged fraud involved 5,000kg of sodium nitrate.
- A case was registered against the proprietor of an explosives company.
In Vadodara, Gorwa police have registered a cheating case against K Subramanyan, the proprietor of Shivashakti Industrial Explosives Pvt Ltd in Tamil Nadu. The complaint was filed by Dilip Shah of Prakash Chemicals Agencies Pvt Ltd, located in the Gorwa GIDC estate.
Shah alleged that Subramanyan placed an order for 5,000kg of sodium nitrate between June 8 and July 5, 2023. The accused reportedly assured payment within 15 days of delivery, which led the supplier to trust and fulfill the order. The total bill amounted to Rs 4,36,600, but only Rs 25,000 was allegedly paid by the accused.
This left an outstanding debt of Rs 4,11,600. Despite receiving the chemical consignment, Subramanyan reportedly failed to clear the remaining dues, causing a substantial financial loss to the Vadodara supplier. The police officially registered the case on Friday evening.
