This includes her flat in Mumbai and some other properties belonging to the company of her husband, Deepak Kocchar.

The ED had registered a criminal case in February last year against Videocon chairman Venugopal Dhoot, Chanda Kochhar, her husband Deepak Kochhar and others to probe alleged irregularities and corrupt practices in sanctioning Rs 3,250-crore loan by the bank to the corporate group.

A probe was initiated in the case to find out if alleged kickbacks were generated in the loan deal and laundered to create tainted asset. (ANI)
