    INDIA'S billionaire Singh brothers, already embroiled in one international legal battle over alleged fraud, are being accused of "diversion, siphoning and digression of assets" by a New York-based investor in a lawsuit filed in the High Court of Delhi.

    The lending arm of Malvinder and Shivinder Singh's publicly traded financial services firm, Religare Enterprises Ltd, made 21 loans to a number of seemingly independent companies that routed at least US$300 million back to privately held Singh firms on the same day, according to a central bank investigation of the company's fiscal 2016 books filed as part of the 700-page suit in November.
