Rani Kapur, mother of the late businessman Sunjay Kapur, has raised serious concerns regarding the circumstances surrounding her son’s death and the subsequent handling of business affairs. Sunjay Kapur, who served as the Chairman of Sona Comstar, passed away in the United Kingdom on June 12, 2024.

A month after his passing, Rani Kapur addressed a letter to Sona Comstar, requesting that the company’s annual general meeting be postponed. In the letter, she expressed dissatisfaction with the lack of information available to her regarding her son's death.

"On June 12, my son Mr. Sunjay Kapur tragically passed away under highly suspicious and unexplained circumstances in the United Kingdom. Despite all attempts, I am not able to receive answers about my son’s death. Despite me seeking information, I have been unable to receive any relevant answers and documents explaining the incident and have been confined to the knowledge and version set out by the media. While we’re in mourning, some people trying to usurp family legacy," she wrote.

She also made it clear that no permission was given by her for any appointments to the board of the Sona group companies. In addition, she alleged that she has been restricted from accessing her own financial accounts.

"I have been left to the mercy of a select few for survival. All this, in less than a month of my only son passing," she stated.

Rani Kapur went on to claim that she had been asked to sign documents without being informed about their content. She described being approached several times and pressured to sign papers while dealing with emotional distress.

"During the aforesaid period of grieving, I was approached multiple times and compelled to sign various documents without explanation or even having time to read and understand the same. Despite being under immense mental and emotional distress, I was coerced into signing such documents behind locked doors and though I’ve requested repeatedly, the contents of such documents have never been revealed to me," she wrote, according to News18.
