CRIMINAL LITIGATION

In an era of intensified regulatory oversight and cross-border financial scrutiny, investigations by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) pose serious risks to personal liberty, corporate reputation, and financial assets. At Rastogi Chambers, our specialised ED – PMLA & FEMA practice, led by Abhishek A Rastogi, a proficient Chartered Accountant and Advocate with over two and a half decades of expertise in indirect taxation and white-collar criminal defence, delivers tactical, result-oriented legal representation.

Our experienced team provides end-to-end support, imitating from the receipt of ED summons or FEMA show cause notices, formulating well-reasoned legal responses and strategic defenses aimed at quashing unwarranted allegations and preventing provisional attachment of assets and bank accounts.

We offer comprehensive representations in PMLA and FEMA matters, including challenges to asset seizures, bail applications, and litigation before all forums from the Adjudicating Authority and FEMA Appellate Tribunal to the High Courts and Supreme Court of India. Our services extend to cross-border enforcement actions, FDI/ODI structuring, and defence against allegations involving shell companies, benami transactions, cyber-enabled financial fraud, and tax evasion.
