Sammaan Capital Share Price Drops Over 13% as SC Slams CBI for Lenient Investigation

As per Moneycontrol report, Sammaan Capital shares fell sharply on November 19, 2025, after the Supreme Court criticised the CBI’s approach in probing alleged financial misconduct by the company's promoters. The stock hit its 10% lower circuit following this development. 

Supreme Court Highlights Soft Handling by CBI 

On November 19, 2025, the Supreme Court expressed concerns over what it termed a “friendly approach” by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in investigating Sammaan Capital. The case was initiated by Citizens Whistle Blower Forum, alleging irregularities such as round-tripping of capital, siphoning of funds, and breaches of the Companies Act. 

Reacting to the court’s observations, Sammaan Capital’s share price crashed 10% on the Bombay Stock Exchange, closing at ₹164.48 apiece. The fall triggered a lower circuit, restricting further trades for the day. 

CBI, SEBI, and ED Asked to Take Action 

The Supreme Court directed the CBI to file a First Information Report, noting that this would facilitate the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in its probe. It also called for a joint meeting involving senior officers from the CBI, ED, SEBI, and Serious Fraud Investigation Office within 2 weeks to examine the accusations objectively. 

Further, the court questioned SEBI’s inconsistent actions, pointing out the regulator's reluctance and urging it to clarify its stance. Reports also mentioned that complaints filed by the ED with the Economic Offences Wing in Delhi and Mumbai hadn’t been acknowledged.
