For the unversed, Gautam Singhania has been going through a difficult phase as he parted ways with his wife, Nawaz Modi Singhania. The couple had been together for 32 years, but their wedding had hit a rough patch. According to the latest reports, Nawaz Modi demanded 75 percent of Gautam Singhania's fortune after their divorce.
According to a report by the Economic Times, Gautam Singhania has tentatively agreed to the demand but also proposed creating a family trust where he would be the sole managing trustee, a term which Nawaz didn't accept. Singhania suggested setting up a family trust, and his assets and wealth would be transferred to the trust, meaning that after his death, his family members would inherit his wealth.
The 84-year-old businessman, Vijaypat landed in trouble when he thought he was keeping his billion-dollar textile empire in the family by gifting his 37 per cent stake to his son, Gautam. It was a 2007 agreement that stated, Vijaypat would receive an apartment in the Singhania family's 36- storey JK house in Mumbai. However, that didn't happen, and Vijaypath accused his younger son, Gautam, of the same.
As the family feud escalated, the board removed Vijaypat's 'chairman' title and accused him of using foul language in letters to the company. The former chairman claims he was physically removed from his office and his possessions, including a Padma Bhushan. He dragged the matter to court and was forced to live in rented accommodation.
Gautam Singhania announced his separation from his wife, Nawaz Modi the next day after Diwali.
