Supreme Court Directs Telangana High Court to Reconsider Shaadi.com Founder’s Quashing Plea

The Supreme Court has asked the Telangana High Court to reconsider, on merits, Shaadi.com founder Anupam Mittal’s plea seeking quashing of a cheating case linked to an alleged fraud by a platform user.

The Court noted that the High Court earlier rejected the plea without examining its merits and merely allowed the investigation to continue.

While remitting the matter, the Supreme Court granted Mittal interim protection from coercive action for eight weeks, clarifying that it has expressed no opinion on the merits of the case.
